Les Grands Consuls, Côtes du Rhône, Rhône, France, 2024

Look no further if you are after a value red for steak tonight. A Rhône blend of Grenache, Syrah, Carignan and Mourvèdre, aged for 6-9 months in old oak barrels, the wine features a perfumed bouquet of dried roses and blueberry fruit. Lovely freshness with more notes of dried herbs on the palate, backed by juicy dark berries and a solid backbone. Savoury with sour mulberry towards the lingering finish.
