Chateau Beauchene

Chateau Beauchene Cotes du Rhone 2001 ($15) - France. Premier Terrior. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre (70%, 25%, 5%). I enjoyed this everyday drinker before heading out to the Playhouse last night, but it would also work very well with food. It has good balance, fruit flavors and a medium finish with enough soft tannins to hold it all together.
