Norm's Tasting Notes

2019 Jean Louis Grand Reserve Cotes du Rhone
#40-2022
I have always been partial to wine from the Rhone in France, and I liked this one enough to make it a "second sipper", meaning this is my second review, since I wrote the first one about seven or eight months ago. This time we paired it with a medium rare fillet, and it was great! What makes it even better, is that it is an under fifteen dollar quality bottle of wine!
Noted wine writer James Suckling scored this one a 91, but I am sticking to my original score, a solid 90! The wine is compelling with black and dark red berry flavors which sing a song of enchantment next to a portion of well prepared beef. The alcohol content is 15%, and as previously stated, Norm's score is 90.
Put this one on the table with Beef Wellington, or Chateaubriand and you will have scored a Hit!
score: 90
price: $10 - $15
