If you want to enjoy one of the wines that "made" Table Wine, pick up a six-pack of Amido's fabulous Cotes du Rhone. Since we opened our doors in 2010, we've sold over 5,000 bottles of this one, and every time we put in on sale, we sell a bunch. There's a good reason for that -- IT'S DELICIOUS!
Josh here -- I truly think you could put this in a blind tasting against many Gigondas' and Vacqueyras', and it would fare well. At less than $20, you're going to want to stock up on this one for cool autumn nights, braised meats, and stews.
2021 Domaine Amido Cotes du Rhone -- Here's why you should buy it:
- This is one of those red wines that everyone will like. Big enough for a Cab drinker and silky enough for a Pinot Noir lover, it's a bona fide crowd pleaser!
- A classic blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 10% Mourvedre fermented and aged in concrete vats, this wine personifies why the Southern Rhone is home to some of the top red wine values in the world.
- Vintage 2020 was a highly successful one in the Southern Rhone. A hot summer and an early harvest led to deep, rich, and pleasure-bent reds.
- It pours a deep ruby color and smells of baked cherries (red and black), kirsch, plum, Provencal herbs, and white pepper. Equally impressive on the palate, this one is full, plush, and seamless, with ripe tannin and mellow acidity.
