Domain d'Andezon's Côtes du Rhône is crafted from a blend of 40 year-old Syrah vines and 60 year-old Grenache vines grown in the arid and galet-laden Southern Rhône. Unfiltered, it's inky and hunkered with slightly rustic notes of black olive tapenade, dried pen ink, loamy soil overlaid by juicy boysenberries. In the mouth, there is an equal degree of intensity, shored up by dusty tannins and brooding, earthy notes. For $12.99, it's a great value, I've always liked this wine, though admittedly 2013 is not what I'd regard as a top vintage. 14.5% ABV | Sample

Quite typical of th Solomon portfolio. Juicy, ripe, fruit forward - soft and supple on the the palate. Gulpable! Just the ticket for tonight's smoked spare ribs.

2013 vintage. Deep red color. Full bodied. Dark well the first day. After sitting for 2 days (vacuum sealed) taste went bad.

What it lacks in structure it makes up for in vivacious juiciness. Bottoms up.

Good. Bought at 2015 Thanksgiving. Nothing overly special but a good everyday wine.

Semi sweet taste with peppery finish. Not my favorite.
