I've extolled the virtues of this NV table wine many times before. So honestly Rhone-ish and satisfying. Exactly what you want under $10.

My go-to under $10 quaffer. Iodiney, earthy garrigue, and spicy blackberry skin fruit. So satisfying. I'll take this over the most expensive Cambie-ized wine you can find.

Under $10 and perfectly captures the character of the Southern Rhone. Garrigue, fruit, throw it back. Go to. Drank some while making salchiccia con la familia (and threw some in for marinating the pork!)

Nonvintage Rhone blend from an excellent Chateauneuf producer, peppery, roasted herbs and iodine spicy berry fruit. At $8.99, a great buy

Clean, tawny colour, bright floral nose, red fruits, roses, oak, strawberries. Low acidity, medium plus tannins, lingering finish
