Xavier Vignon Cuvee S M Rouge NV
Rhone Blends | France
Hey, we are as blown away as you! Only 21 cases to sell (we bought the other one)! Whatever you do, don't miss this one if you love deep, silky, plush reds (think Chateauneuf-du-Pape). The quality to price ratio on this one is pegged deep into the red zone...so much wine for the money!
Xavier Mignon, super-consultant in the Rhone, marches to the beat of his own drum. This unique and incredibly creative wine is...just...KILLER. It is an old vine blend (60+ year old vines) from 50% 2015 Syrah from the Northern Rhone (a vintage Marcel Guigal has called the vintage of a lifetime) and 50% 2016 Grenache from the South (a vintage that will go down as one of the ALL TIME greats in the region). It is a SUPERB, stylish and seamless wine that drinks spectacularly for $22. LOAD UP! This packs in the lush, hedonistic black cherry and briar patch for sure with all the Northern Rhone power and smokiness, along with framboise, anise, red whips and toasted peppercorn. SO GOOD!
