Guigal Cotes Du Rhone always a great bargain and the 2017 got even higher scores. The only disappointment for US buyers is that between the tariffs and the value of the Euro, this wine has gone up ~50% in price in just a few years.

Ordered 12 bottles of the 2017 vintage in another dealer`s low price "year-end wipeout"  ....

You are drinking a bit much, although your tastes are impeccable ..... just want to have you here as long as possible, that is. I just had the last glass of the Barolo I opened last weekend on the 25th. It was delicious, but needs to breathe for at least an hour to develop his full bouquet.

For a long time bought much more than actually drinking and always considered this more as collecting than unrestrained hedonism .... COVID-19 changed things, working from home over the last 10 months made me enjoy having some vine (after work) more often with my family (which means sharing a bottle=having a glass)🍷😎🍷 ....
