Franck Balthazar, Côtes du Rhône 2023 England backed up by zinging acidity

backed up by zinging acidity and smokey

So much to like here

with decent dosage of 6g/l balancing out an extraordinary acid line

Crunchy pears

I remember this being a highlight from one of the dimly lit caves of the Loire

Franck Balthazar, Côtes du Rhône 2023 England backed up by zinging acidityPlace: Rhne, FranceGrape: Grenache + Syrah Vibe: Stone Cold Classic, RicherCtes du Rhne of the very highest order. Find me a better wine at this price? You cant. Intensity of fruit, floral charm, powder fine tannin. This has it all and then some. This ngoce bottling truly shows that Frank Balthazar is a master of his craft. ABV: 14%
