Gabriel Meffre Laurus Côtes du Rhône-Villages 2019

Outstanding stuff that should be a smoking value, the 2019 Côtes Du Rhône Villages Laurus has lots of Provençal garrigue and spicy, savory red and black fruits in its medium to full-bodied, character-filled, balanced profile. It’s going to offer plenty of enjoyment over the coming 3-4 years. Maturity: 2022-2026. Score – 90. (jebdunnuck.com, Jan. 25, 2022)
