I am not an expert, just a discerning wine lover or amateur de vin (as the French say), but everyone has a different palate, likes and dislikes so it must be understood that any of my recommendations are personal. I just hope that you find them useful or at the very least - interesting. I also hope you enjoy my photos. It is more fun sharing then keeping them backed up on a hard drive.

Ahhh, Rhone, my fall-back position for Wednesday's dinner...

I love these Southern Rhone GSM blends because they can be such good value for money. This one definitely is!

- $ 15.00

All spice, plum, anise and tobacco on the nose. Smoky, spicy black cherry palate with juicy acid structure.
