The 2018 Cotes du Rhone is 100% Syrah, sourced from the Gard (on the right bank of the Rh?ne) and Vinsobres (left bank, higher elevation). Violets, black olives and cassis and blueberry flavors provide terrific varietal expression in a medium to full-bodied package framed by silky tannins. Depending on your local pricing (I've seen it for as little as $12.99 or as much as $20), it should be a terrific value.
