2011 Megaphone Ventoux

Old habits die hard.  It's been awhile since I reviewed a wine, and this is more of a plug, but this one got my attention.  Imported by Kermit Lynch with some sort of Vieux Telegraphe pedigree.  You do the research.  I'm too busy fixing dinner.  Paired it with grilled sweet Italian sausage and pepper/onions with a touch of heat.  Maybe more than a touch.  Not a perfect pairing, but no complaints from the crew.

80/20 Grenache and Syrah.  Bold, smooth, and complex.  Like me.

Under $20.

Bon Appetit and Cheers!
