The Wine: 2006 Rouge
The Price: $14.59 at Costco
Domaine de Nizas is located in southern France in Nizas, located in the Coteaux du Languedoc appellation. The winery was founded in 1998 and focuses on artisan-style wines.
This wine is a blend of 60% Syrah, 35% Mourvedre and 5% Granace. The bottle was sealed with a natural cork and decanted an hour before tasting. The wine is very dark burgundy in color. It has aromas of blackberry, black pepper and bell pepper.
This is a very delicious wine. It has bit of a black pepper bite, countered with generously fruity flavors of blackberry, cranberry and vanilla. This is a $15 wine that absolutely drinks like a $30 bottle.
