YOU GOTTA TRY THIS SOULFUL FRENCH RED
Recently I’ve been recommending lots of Cotes du Rhone in the very rich style but here’s my favourite.
A more everyday, traditional character. Very bistro-ish ““ no high alcohol, no heaviness. Just lots of vitality and refreshment to stimulate the palate and put you in the mood for a two hour supper. With a second bottle of course. Did I mention delicious spicy/peppery flavours and charm!
