The Rhone River Valley is noted for some of the finest in French wines. Names like Hermitage and Chateauneuf-du-Pape are legendarily delicious, but often quite expensive.
Luckily, the region also produces some vintages of quality that can be found in our frugal range. One such vintage is E. Guigal's Côtes-du-Rhône Rouge, which is composed mostly of Syrah and Grenache, with a smattering of Mourvèdre to add robust complexity.
Guigal ages their Côtes du Rhône Rouge in oak for a full 18 months before release, which results in a wine of unusual complexity for its very affordable price.
