A former Wine of the Year from Le Grand Guide des Vins de France, winemaker Roland Podenas crafts some of the best $15 reds in France. This single vineyard Greviere has put the obscure village of Madiran back on the wine map, as this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Tannat are very similiar to drinking full-bodied Bordeaux. Loaded with notes of blackberry, plum, and blueberry compote with toasted notes and baking spices from the aging in French foudre, the Tannat is gracefully balanced by the Cabernet Sauvignon for a long, juicy finish and pleasantly gripping tannins. Not to mention, this Greviere has the ability to age another 10+ years. Just entering its drinking window and rated 93 Points from Wine Enthusiast at $50 a bottle, if you love French reds, this is a must buy for $14.99!
"The smooth, rich and smoky texture of this massive wine brings out layers of black-plum fruits and tight acidity that adds juiciness. The wine's power is palpable, dense and set for much more aging. Drink from 2024." The Wine Enthusiast, 93 Points
