Is Côtes du Rhône Villages a good wine?
What reviewers say
“$8.99 at Costco...Damn 👍 for the price! Big minerality notes, earth, sour cherry & red berry, scorched toffee...faint engine burn. Initial pop of acidity is smoothed out with a soft, rounded mouthfeel & silky tannins. Tart jammy fruit-forward.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
