Another one of my standby wines most every vintage is the Guigal Cotes du Rhone from one of the most famous producers in the region. The 2003 was a phenomenal vintage, and after many great bottles, this may be the last one I have from that year as the 2005 has now appeared on some local shelves (no idea what happened to 2004).
As in prior tastings, this wine continued to show its worth. A darker, richer Cotes du Rhone that definitely has more Syrah than many blends, it has really been a favorite over the past couple of years. I definitely recommend it for the price, and look forward to trying out the 2005 vintage soon.
