Man oh man oh man. This may just be the best value in wine I ever scored. Knocked my socks off years ago when it came in at a cost of 4 bucks a bottle. No brainer, got a case, still drinking well in 2013. I've got one bottle left and I don't doubt it will still be good in a year. Perfect table wine in my book. I would that they were all like this. Note to self: look for more wines from Orange. Always seem to be charmers.

An interesting French appellation situated around the town of Orange, in the Department of Vaucluse. A light ruby colour, dark cherry and an austere vegetal nose with hints of antiseptic cream. Zingy, freshly squeezed berries brighten an otherwise short palate. Soft tannins and slightly creamy, "juicy", the finish was warm but not long lasting. ***
