E. Guigal, Côtes du Rhône (Rhône Valley, France) 2011

Oct 20, 2016

By Marguerite Thomas

 A whiff of smoke, a dash of mixed herbs (especially fennel), and plenty of ripe plum and cherry notes all add up to a truly tasty wine.  Deliciously soft and juicy, it evolves into a satisfyingly firm and lengthy finish.  It’s hard to think of another red wine at this price that is anywhere near as satisfying.
