The 2007 Jean Louis Chave Cotes du Rhone Mon Coeur is a smooth blend of Grenache and Syrah. It has an excellent concentration and richness that displays nice red fruit and spice. The medium tannins give it a nice balance. This wine lies somewhere closer to the Pinot Noir spectrum, and is very drinkable now.

This Spanish Red isn't Ludicrous...It's Ludovicus!
This 2009 Spanish red comprised of 35% garnacha, 30% tempranillo, 25% syrah, and 10% cabernet sauvignon is full of ripe berry and cherry flavor. The wine has nice concentration, along with plenty of finish and depth. The tannins are moderate. Made in the Terra Alta region, this wine is to be enjoyed now and over the next few years. Definitely one of my favorite $10 bottles right now....found at Binny's. #binnys#spanishred#tempranillo#wine
