Peter Maude Fine Wines
Le Petit Vin d'Avril, Rouge, NV
$54
Vincent's cheeky Vin de France which is basically a super-high-quality Côte du Rhone for casual drinking - made approachable early by the judicious blending of older vintages into the new. Exceptional value.
"The Petit Vin d'Avril rouge has good maturity and structure with good acidity
and aromas of red berries, cherry, blackcurrant; very balanced. It is a medium-ageing wine that you can still enjoy over a few years." Vincent Avril, Domaine Clos des Papes.
