$29.99
Courier 2017 Rouge, Cotes Catalanes France
A fantastic tiny-production discovery from the South of France. One of the best buys under $30 we've found this year. Don't miss!
96+ Points The Wine Independent: "A blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Carignan, the 2017 Courier Rouge is medium to deep garnet in color. It needs considerable shaking to wake up notes of kirsch, raspberry coulis, redcurrant jelly, and mandarin peel, with wafts of candied violets, iris, garrigue, and crushed rocks. The medium to full-bodied palate is lively and so, so soft with licorice-laced red and black fruits and a long earthy finish - Lisa Perroti-Brown.
93 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "The same blend as the 2016, the 2017 Côtes Catalanes is more ethereal and perfumed, with a complex nose of red fruits, sandalwood, and spicy garrigue-like nuances. Medium to full-bodied, balanced, and elegant, this seamless Côtes Catalanes has ultra-fine tannins and a great finish. It's another beauty to enjoy over the coming 5-7 years or so... Hats off to Kimberly Jones for having the courage to follow her own path and creating a singular, unique wine." READ LESS
