a play on cotes du rhone, this tasty south african red wine from paarl, za is a blend of shiraz, cinsaut, carignan and mourvèdre with a dash of local pinotage. or so i hear. dunno what all that's s'posed to mean, but i can say that this little wine goes well with goat cheese and also with lamb. we had some with our easter dinner, and it sent chills down my spine with it subtle reach. i bet it would go well with mussels too.
i don't usually buy wines over $10, but i think it's time i started. and i'll have to keep my eye out for another bottle of this goat-wine.
taste: 4/5 - one of the better wines i've had in awhile
price: ~$14
