twitterSavvy wine buy: Routas ‘97
Wednesday, July 19, 2000 | 9:50 a.m.
Max Jacobson
The poetically named Couquelicot -- which is the French word for poppy -- is an unusual blend of two delicious grapes, the noble Chardonnay and the floral Viognier, a grape indigenious to the Rhone Valley. This stunning wine is the result of a collaboration between Bob Lundquist of Qupe Vineyards in California, and French winemakers. In fact, it is 60 percent Chardonnay, 40 percent Viognier, and has a full, rich flavor. At this price, just try finding a comparable French white.
Available at Spirits Plus and Lee's Discount Liquors, $15.95.
