"À Côté" IGP de la principauté d'Orange 2016

- 89 points -

A 50-50 blend of Grenache and Merlot, the 2016 IGP Principaute d’Orange A Cote was raised entirely in concrete. It's a dark, plummy red, with ample depth and concentration, a velvety mouthfeel and a long finish. It's not the most complex red, but at $15 retail, it's a terrific bargain in a ready-to-drink red.
