Château de Nages

Buti Nages Costières-de-Nîmes White Rhone Blend 2016

Clean, tart, crisp. Great summer wine. Unintentionally had it with key lime pie, which was a pretty decent pairing. 60% Grenache, 40% Roussanne. $10 — 7 years ago

Roc d'Anglade

Vin de Pays du Gard Carignan Blend 2010

Ou la la grand potentiel! Il commence à peine à s’ouvrir. On est sur les fruits rouges type mûre avec de la fraîcheur en finale qui rend le vin très digeste. La prochaine dans 5 ans... — 7 years ago

Mas Carlot

Les Enfants Terribles Mourvedre Blend 2013

Very nice. A little acidic out of the gate, but mellows nicely in the glass. — 8 years ago

Exactly what it should be. Mourvèdre driven, lots of garrique, very savory and fun to drink — 10 years ago

Château d'Or et de Gueules

Cuvée Les Cimels Costières-de-Nîmes Red Rhone Blend

Muted pink color, like a cross between cantaloupe and watermelon.
And there's melon on the taste as well. Not a bright rose, low acid. This is a Sunday sipper. No food needed with it. Yummy

Château de Nages

Vieilles Vignes Costières-de-Nîmes White Rhone Blend 2015

Mildly floral and only barely perceptible spice in the nose, with a fresh, dry, tannin feel and lovely medium finish that imparts only a hint if sweet ... I f***ing love this wine. It earns all its own points on taste, but gets an additional honourable mention for being UNDER $20. Buy a case or three right now and thank me later! — 7 years ago

Château de Campuget

Tradition de Campuget Costières-de-Nîmes White Rhône Blend 2015

2015. Aroma of pears. Citrus fruit, tart and clean. Light drying and moderately lasting finish. Great with sharp dry cheese, grilled fish and garden vegetables. — 8 years ago

Domaine de la Patience

Nemausa Rosé Blend

Turkish delight/rose water, orange blossom, white melon, pencil lead, perfectly balanced acidity. Juicy to plush mouthfeel. Lingering watermelon — 9 years ago

Château Mourgues du Gres

Galets Rosés Costières-de-Nîmes Rosé Blend 2016

Oh hell now that I’m Court certified I’m SO happy to drink things I won’t be tested on! Southern Rhône/almost southern coast rosé all day every day! This almost has the nuance of the Tavel I so love. Most Syrah then the 40 % Grenache kicks in with red fruit for days. Not quite so balanced (alcohol high-ish and acid not quite so integrated but this is under ten bucks!) as I may wish but dang tasty. Let’s do this beat by beat.
Eye: damn that’s almost fuschia with added salmon nose: ripe strawberries and stones Tongue; blueberries those dang Syrah indicators rear their delicious head. Along with strawberries and underbrush and a wet stone or two. This is a wine to grab by the hand and take on a weekend picnic. May not be a soul mate but you won’t regret minute together.

Les Galets Rouges Costières-de-Nîmes

Manure. Leather. That old world funk, all up in my nose. I love it. Pair it with the deep, dry black fruit in the mouth, and I'm transported back to a quiet evening in Carcassonne. — 8 years ago

Tenet Wines

Le Fervent Costières de Nîmes Syrah Blend

Exotic aromatics. Black pepper, lavender, and dark fruits all come off like they've been infused with Tangerine peel oil. High-toned and slightly bitter, but better for it. I could sit and smell this wine over and over. Very Côte Rotie. — 10 years ago
