What’s Wrong With This Picture?
What’s with the 2007 Domaine La Guintrandy Cotes Du Rhone Saint-Leger?
I can see it has a really bad medieval thing going on with the label – reminiscent of a middle-schooler’s Dungeons & Dragons artwork. And it’s definitely got an earthy smell – dare I say the smell of the slow release fertilizer, otherwise known as manure. But does it taste bad too?
Amazingly, it doesn’t. It actually tastes pretty darn good!
It’s 50% Grenache and 50% Syrah and for 10 smackers this Rhone red is not half bad! The vibrant red berry flavors that mingle with fresh ground black pepper make this wine a solid value, even if you need a clothes pin over your nose in order to enjoy it!
3 Stars out of 4. Air out before consumption.
($10)
