For some of the best fruit, structure and velvety tannins, try Cote du Rhone! This has always been a standard for wine enthusiasts because of the wonderful complexity of these wines at a great price point, most under $20! One of the most fantastic I have tasted recently is the Cote du Rhone from Feraud Brunel, 2007. This is made by the same wine maker as the Famous Domaine Pegau Chateauneuf du Pape, which in recent years typically and consistently scores 94-95 points by either Parker or Wine Spectator. This wine has luscious, velvety fruit with hardly any harsh tannins what so ever. The wonderful deep cherry fruit just jumps out of the glass and finishes smooth till the end with no drop off in intensity, an extreme pleasure. Now the biggest bonus is the the price at $18 per bottle. Pick some up through Enotria. Click the online link.http://www.enotriaretailwine.com/Ch_teau_La_Nerthe_Ch_teaunuef_du_Pape_2004_p/frn121.htm
