The Wine of the Week UNDER $15 - Kermit Lynch Vin de Pays du Vaucluse

June 25th, 2008 Comments(0)

Kermit Lynch is one of my favorite importers. Always reliable, I will routinely buy wines based upon nothing but his name on the back.

This wine is a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre from the Vaucluse region of Provence. It channels the wonderful black cherry, plum, and peppery spice that I love from Rhone wines, but at a price that is perfect for a mid-week evening.

This weeks wine comes from Ole Imports, a company new to Alabama, specializing in Spanish selections. Zestos, from Vinos Sin-Ley is an unoaked blend of 50% Tempranillo and 50% Garnacha, resulting in a easy to sip, fruit forward table wine, with a good balance. This is a great selection for hot-weather quaffing. A great value at the price!
