Louis Bernard Côtes du Rhône Rouge 2010

Côtes du Rhône, Rhone Valley, FranceBright plummy fruit dominates the nose with just a squeeze of garrigue (dried indigenous herbs) for interest. The attack is soft and plummy with pepper, thyme and a light, meaty, character in the finish. A friendly, honest straight-up Rhone blend for hamburgers or grilled chicken. The blend is roughly 65 percent grenache and 35 percent syrah. Excellent value. Simplicity rules.Tasted: 04 August 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
