Rouge #2 - Neighbors get together to donate grapes to someone who lost their vintage to hail AND it's friggin cheap AND delicious. Rich ripe loamy fruit. Good good stuff.

A Provençal red, the 2012 Château de Roquefort Gréle No. 2 reveals black olive tapenade, Garrigue, black licorice, fresh potting soil. smoky black tea and pen ink as it slowly unspools. Round in the mouth and expressive, though not as full bodied or as intense as some of its Southern Rhône cousins. There is wonderful energy here—ultra fine tannins, black tea, and earthy, slightly rustic undertones. 13.5% ABV

Yes it is a nice story, ok. The wine is rich and bright, light on tannin. Developed nicely in the glass. Drank it too fast. Think I'll buy another bottle.
