Morgan Cotes du Crow's Red Blend 2019

This Morgan Cotes du Crow's is one of our go-to reds when we don't want to think hard about a delicious red that goes with everything from roast chicken to a hearty bolognaise, or a grilled ribeye and some creamy smashed potatoes. The bonus and other big draw here: that price! This falls into our BBC category winelovers - Buy By the Case.

Winery: "This Rhone-style blend has a rich ruby red color, highlighted with purple edges. Rasberry jam, cedar, and fig paste aromas jump out of the glass. The wine is medi- um-bodied with soft tannins, offering a mouthful of brambleberry and black cherry. Its weight and balance make it a perfect pairing with anything off the grill.

Cotes du Crow’s is our unique blend of the two noble, predominant red varietals of France’s southern Rhone Valley: Grenache and Syrah. This year we again decid- ed to use a small amount of Tempranillo - its spice and earth tones are a beautiful complement to Grenache and Syrah. Sourced primarily from the Arroyo Seco and San Lucas appellations of Monterey County. Warmer daytime temperatures are mitigated by ocean breezes and cool nights - fostering acidity and balance."
