Perrin & Fils Vinsobres Les Cornuds 2006 Southern Rhône, France

List Price: $21, We Bought a Bunch: $18.99

What the Wine Critics Thought: Wine Spectator 91 Points A ripe, rich and racy Rhône red, with an ample core of black currant, fig paste, hoisin sauce and graphite flavors backed by dark coffee, mesquite and mineral notes on the long, structured finish. Impressive. Drink now through 2011. 5,000 cases made. –JM

What We Thought: A earthy, thick, licorice nose leads to medium-bodied palate of classic brambly Rhône fruit that is supported by some very solid tannins and acids. This well-balanced wine just begs for food.
