Chateau Hautes Ribes Vacqueyras

I was down in Phoenix, AZ for work this past December and had dinner one night with my good friend Al (a sommelier). Al had a Rhone that I thought was amazing. Very reasonably priced ($12-$15) with a deep velvety color and rich flavor that Al said was due to the heat in Southern France where the vineyard is.

One I didn't want to forget about so here's the Cellar Tracker Link:

Al said it's kind of hard to come by so good luck to you if you happen to search for any.


Wine Spectator notes: Lovely red. Lots of pure, clean, ripe red and black fruit. Supple and sweet tannins. Medium body. Wonderful finish. Not overly complex, but great pleasure in a glass.
