Perrin et Fils, 2007 Nature Cotes du Rhone (France)
List price is $13.99. If you can find it for this or even $15 or $16, buy it. It's organically grown Grenache with a splash of Syrah from a top grower. And it's delicious. The nose is a trumpet of strawberries, blackberries, toast off the barrels and black pepper. The palate is voluptuous with silky tannins and a blast of red berry fruit and acidity. It's showy. It has substance. It pops in the mouth. I can't help but think the "Nature" part of the equation has something to do with it.
