This Gigondas—densely concentrated and deeply opaque—is more refined than meets the eye.

February Club Rouge ~ The flavors are mostly deep and dark—stones, licorice, black olive, and blackberry—but the frame is lithe.

This thirst-quenching, bright, and plummy red is enhanced with a little bit of chill and perfect for grillables.
