Dear Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant,

Help! I’m all out of wine and desire a hearty daily drinker! I love the brambly, peppery Grenache-based wines from Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas, but need something a bit less expensive that I can stock up on for weeknight imbibing. I’ve looked high and low, but just can’t seem to find a red with the right combination of quality and price.

Sincerely,

Searching for Tipple

Dear Searching,

Look no further than Beaumes-de-Venise, a small village southeast of Gigondas. Here, on the site of ancient Roman baths, the Leydier family makes a full-bodied red with its own restorative powers. Spicy red berry fruit, some earthy garrigue notes, and a chewy finish for about half the price of a good Gigondas. My advice? Buy six bottles to cover the shipping, round out the case with six more wines to qualify for the case discount, and put your feet up. Your search is over.

Sincerely,

Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant

Terroirs

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
