Very fine Chateauneuf du Pape from Costco. Winemaker was Guillaume Gonnet. Drinks smooth and rich, subtle berry flavors and herbs du Provence. I’ve had some C du Papes that were a bit harsh, but not this one for about $20. Almost as good as a Hermitage. — 3 years ago

I love this varietal. Inky color, blueberry/Boysenberry jam, wild spice, geranium, chalky minerality, funk(in the best way), medium tannin, chalky finish and great acid. — 6 years ago

After 6 years this is starting to really strut its stuff and live up the exalted status of this great 1er Cru. Nose of lemon zest, lemon curd, mineral, kiss of oak, a little muted for now as a bit cold but palate is unreal. Huge density and richness with terrific acidity and freshness. Massively mineral finish with serious structure and concentration. Finish is compact and comes across as massive yet closed. Very pure and just superb quality. Very complex finish and really all the way through.Stunning showing. Great terroir. Wish i would have waited longer and i rarely say that. — 7 years ago

Herbal, peppery aromas mixed with hints of mint. Tannins are still strong almost 20 years on, almost mouth puckering. Very deep, dark fruit still there too. — 8 years ago

Enough Mourvèdre to present as lightly oaked with good spice and funk. Tannins are abundant with plenty of compelxity on the palette. Wonderful value gigondas. — 8 years ago

An 80/20 blend of Grenache/Syrah from 50 year old vines planted in red clay and limestone. There’s a distinctively tropical lift embedded in this alluring mixture of red fruit, rose petal, lavender, stone, and garrigue. A charmer, both intellectually and hedonistically. — 9 years ago

Buttermilk & underripe mandarin on the nose with buttermilk again on the palette and riper mandarin juice, creamy but zingy at the end

Not a Rose. This easy drinking blend of Grenache/Syrah was a delightful find under $20. Check it out definitely. — 5 years ago

[No longer a Cotes du Rhône but now an AOC in its own right and deservedly so] Excellent purity with a noticeable Syrah component. Voluptuous and refined at the same time, this is absolutely delightful. — 7 years ago

Medium intensity, rich ruby red, floral on the nose along with red fruit, earthy mushroom undertones and slight hints of chocolate. In the palate light mouth feel, full of fruit, strawberries and cherry. No to light tannin, medium acid compliments the earthy after taste. Amazing with goats cheese, cherry tomatoes on pane do casa or with quince paste. — 7 years ago
