Wine of the Week: 2007 Domaine Gour de Chaulé "Cuvee de la Vigneronne" Côtes du Rhône (FR) $15

This 2007 Domaine Gour de Chaulé "Cuvee de la Vigneronne" Côtes du Rhône is an enticing, medium-bodied red wine find from the famed Southern Rhone Valley, from the stellar '07 vintage. Expect inviting aromatics and a fresh, fruit-forward style full of blackberry and black cherry with a resilient dose of acidity and soft, dusty tannins. This would be a fine pick for hearty beef-based stews, roasted game or smoked meat and sausage dishes.
