2022 Côtes-du-Rhône Rouge “Contre Couleur”

Domaine Gramenon
Discount Eligible $57.00
AT CART MAX

Michèle Aubéry-Laurent is a true renaissance woman: winemaker, mother, painter, former nurse…and each facet seems to find its way into her cuvées. “Contre Couleur” is the newest one—a blend of red, pink, and white varieties—and pays homage to a term she uses to describe how contrasting colors play off one another to bring objects into focus. Deep, dynamic Grenache feels aptly highlighted by bright and fresh Clairette. Soft and rich, yet still defined, the proof of Michèle’s color theory shines, too, in the bottle. This is an artist who knows her brush strokes.

Inspiring Thirst

A good doctor prescribed the wine of Nuits-Saint-Georges to the Sun King, Louis XIV, when he suffered an unknown maladie. When the king’s health was restored the tasty remedy enjoyed a vogue at court. Lord, send me a doctor like that!
