Rosé wine dinner at The Wheatleigh in Lenox, MA. Probably my favorite of the night. This is a case-worthy purchase and insanely reasonable. Easy drinking, cherry and strawberry flavors, some baking spice, minerality, and a great mouthfeel and finish.

While it’s not quite their La Closerie du Pic, Le Prestige from Château Puech-Haut has been one of the best bang for your buck bottles going back to at least 2009. The 2013 is a blend of 55% Grenache, 45% Syrah and, again, a stunning value. Rich blackberry and lush raspberry, licorice, peppered meat, and smoked mesquite, with a backdrop of Herbes de Provence.

Pairs well with a warm fire. Great value and has many more years left

Apr 17th, 2017For my money, I've never found a better bottle under $20. Full-bodied, with rich, dark fruit and layers of incense, rock, fig, and lavender. Lush and hedonistic.

Not up to previous bottles, so may be time to drink up.
