Domaine de Ferrand Vieilles Vignes 2018
$37.00Nearly entirely produced from Grenache – from a plot planted in 1920 and almost legally Chateauneuf du Pape; separated bureaucratically only by a skinny country road. Ferrand’s Vieilles Vignes is as good as red Côtes du Rhône gets in my opinion and has much in common texturally with fine burgundy. All stone, silk and spice. […]
