Another great wine in a box!! This Cote Du Rhone highlights highlights a deep, earthy minerality with vibrant fruit flavors and a lasting finish. Perfect for grilled meats or ripe cheeses.

Mr Couston’s grandfather started making wine in Tulette in 1919. Today, Domaine le Garrigon spreads over 200 acres from Tulette to Visan. The Mediterranean climate, and the soil nature; silt laden calcareous clay with pebbly traces, are favorable to rich and heavy wine growing.
These vines have been cultivated organically since 1997, without any yeast or enzyme, animal products, weed-killers, or pesticides.

While famous wine regions like Chateauneuf du Pape, Vacqueyras and Gigondas are fun to say, almost 75% of wine production in the Southern Rhone is labeled Cotes du Rhone, an expansive sets of vineyards to the south. Extremely reasonable in price, the region is best known for smaller producers making sensational wines. Different from their Nothern Rhone cousins of Hermitage and Cote Rotie, the vineyards in Cotes du Rhone are part of the sunny, herb scented, lavender strewn, olive growing Mediterranean. Brutally hot days are contrasted with the cold mistral winds blowing from the Alps down the Rhone Valley. These winds concentrate the sugar and acid in the grapes while cooling down the vines and protecting against humidity and mold. The end results are generally full bodied wines full of power and finesse.
