The '07 Cotes du Rhone train rolls on

The quality price ratio for Cotes du Rhone in 2007 is pretty much unbeatable...here's yet another example of how pound for pound, this vintage is an undisputed champion:

Grand Veneur Reserve CDR '07
Another delicious '07, w/ a deep ruby hue, revealing a nose of hoison sauce, pepper, seaweed and pure black cherry liqueur. The wine splashes an equal dose of spice and tang in the palate, w/ a beefy spine pumping some serious dark fruit through to the finish. High octane, yet decidedly authentic, 89 points.
