Côtes du Rhône Villages, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Very good for the price at TJ's. Fruity with a bit of smoke amd pepper. Not a huge amount of depth, but for the price who cares? I taste a fairly large percentage of Syrah in this.

This wine was pretty acidic and tart for me, but it didn't have and any other parts that tasted bad or out of balance, which leads me to believe this wine would be good for aging. At 5 or 6$ buy three of four of them and let them sit 5 years or more and see if it mellows out.

This is perfectly adequate Cotes du Rhone. Medium bodied, tannic, and balanced, it's better alone than with food. I'm not in a hurry to try it again.

Great blend! Hints of pepper from the Syrah and with the sweet aroma and taste from the Grenache. For the price too it's worth it.

Not as drinkable as I'd hoped, finish of alcohol that I would expect of a California wine, not a French
