The southern Rhone produces more than 50 million gallons of wine annually that qualifies as Cotes-du-Rhone, and it is hard to believe that so much quality wine can pour out of this fertile region. The well-known wine importer Kermit Lynch found this one, a ripe, lush wine that blends Syrah and Grenache. The taste is that of ripe berries and the finish is long and smooth. This wine is a wonderful value, and it is ready to drink right now.

Available at Las Vegas Wine Co., $9.99; and Lee's Discount Liquors, $9.99.
