2017 Vin de Pays de Vaucluse Rouge

Domaine de Durban
Discount Eligible $12.95
SOLD OUT

This southern French red blend reminds me of those ripe mulberries I would pick all summer. The soft, juicy fruit and bright acidity lead to a long, dry finish with very supple tannin. At this price, it is quite likely that this wine will become your go-to red for barbecues and leisurely summer evenings with friends.

Sampling wine out of the barrel.

When buying red Burgundy, I think we should remember:

1. Big wines do not age better than light wine.
2. A so-called great vintage at the outset does not guarantee a great vintage for the duration.
3. A so-called off vintage at the outset does not mean the wines do not have a brilliant future ahead of them.
4. Red Burgundy should not taste like Guigal Côte-Rôtie, even if most wine writers wish it would.
5. Don’t follow leaders; watch yer parking meters.
