Price Description
A crowd favourite for its name—kidding around with French Côtes du Rhône—from a property now as famous for its goat herd as its wine. It’s also a popular modern red with rich, rounded, fruity character. It blends several varieties to produce a spicy, syrah-like wine with plum, chocolate and smoked meat flavours. A little bit tarry on the finish. Very good length. Vintages Essentials. LCBO 718940
