2023 Côtes du Rhône Rouge

Selected by Kermit Lynch
Discount Eligible $14.95
AT CART MAX

Sure, the price point here is hard to beat, but what’s in the glass outshines even its impeccable value. Dark-fruited, with fresh acidity and stony tannins, our house blend Côtes du Rhône is about as versatile as reds come from the south of France. No matter what’s on tonight’s takeout menu, this bottle delivers. Lamb shawarma, kebabs, and falafel? Certainly. Carne asada burritos with chips and guac? No doubt. Wood-fired pizza and Caesar salad? Yessiree! The pairing possibilities are endless, and it’s an inspired option when the mood strikes to try something new—low risk, high reward!

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.
