2018 Côtes-du-Rhône “La Sagesse”

Domaine Gramenon
Discount Eligible $47.00
SOLD OUT

If you’re looking to store some rays for a rainy day, Michèle Aubery says her Sagesse will age nicely for years to come. Made from the “younger” of the old vines (planted in the ’50s), this Côtes du Rhône flaunts the purity and power of 100% Grenache. Try it now, but do take Michèle’s recommendation and cellar some, too.

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.
