Les Halos de Jupiter
Costières-de-Nîmes Red Rhone Blend
Classic Rhône Garrigue nose with a somewhat jammy palate. Good value.

Mar 10th, 2016$11.69 at Total Wine (2012). Allyson likes it, Paul really likes it. Bit dry, lots of fruity notes and very smooth.

Jul 12th, 2015Reminds me a bit more of a California Syrah (or even Zinfandel) than a Rhone blend. Not bad but too one sided in the fruit department, lacks proper balance. 2011 vintage.
Edit: better on day 2. A bit more complexity followed by a nice, oaky finish.
