2007 Domaine d'Andezon La Granacha
On Sale $15.99
Compare to The Wine Advocate's Price of $23.00
"Deep ruby to the rim, with beautiful aromas of kirsch liqueur, melted licorice, ground pepper, and garrigue, it is a superb, full-bodied effort with terrific precision, definition, and concentration. This beauty should drink well for 5-6 years." -Rated 91/100 The Wine Advocate

2007 Chateau Mourgues du Gres "Galets Rouge"
On Sale $16.99
"The 2007 Galets Rouge ,78% Syrah and the rest Grenache, Mourvedre, and Carignan, is another extraordinary value from the 2007 vintage. A deep ruby/purple color is followed by gorgeous aromas of blackberries, white flowers, and charcoal. Full-bodied, and oozing with fruit and glycerin, good acidity, freshness, and focus, this is a lovely red to consume over the next 2-4 years."
-Rated 92/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

2007 Chateau Mourgues du Gres "Capitelles du Mourgues" On Sale $22.99 "A sensational red wine is the 2007 Capitelles du Mourgues, a Cote Rotie look-alike from the treasure-trove of values, Costieres de Nimes. A combination of 83% Syrah and the rest Carignan and Grenache, all aged in 600 liter demi-muids, it boasts an opaque purple color as well as an extraordinary nose of blackberries, creme de cassis, licorice, and spring flowers. Sensational purity, full-bodied richness, good underlying freshness and vibrancy, and an amazingly long finish suggest a wine that costs 2-3 times as much. This exceptional effort should evolve for a decade." -Rated 92/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
