Beaucastel, Cotes Du Rhone Coudoulet Size:12x750ml The blend of 96% ShirazWinner, winner, chicken dinner. This wine is a steal for the money.

Rich sexy textures, layers of ripe, sweet, red and black fruit, cherries galore, griotte and herbal aromas were made even better with the long, fleshy finish.
