One of the super-stars of Gigondas, Santa Duc has turned out a sumptuous, rich, spicy, medium to full-bodied Cotes du Rhone that is available for a song. Yves Gras' 1995 Cotes du Rhone boasts a dark ruby/purple color, as well as a knock-out nose of black pepper, kirsch, roasted peanuts, and chocolate. Dense and medium to full-bodied, with no hard edges, this is a supple-textured, delicious, mouthfilling Cotes du Rhone to drink over the next 4-5 years. With a steak grilled over a wood fire and some ratatouille, this wine will be mouthwatering. An excellent value.Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083
