Love them all but Gigondas is high on my list. Thanks
St Cosme Cotes du Rhone is always a buy for me year in year out. Their Les Deux Albion is a step above. Coudoulet de Beaucastel I use as my cellar defender for my big boy Beaucastel bottles. I usually find that CdRs from Chateauneuf producers are very very good.
Great video summary of the region. Just got into some Rhone wines. Gigondas is my favorite so far …haven't actually tried the others yet though, so I can't really say that 😂
Awesome explanation of these wines. I'm finally starting to understand. Thank you. Last year I had a budget friendly Rasteau from Trade Joe's, great wine! Megadeth, heck yes. They just released their "final" album. It might be a while, but I'll check it out eventually.
