Today's wine is one that I've had sitting around the store and forgot about! At the first sip this was a favorite and I had recommended many times until I moved on to other wines. The Pegovino Grenache/Syrah 2006 is a nice rustic French red with enough fruit to please everyone. It pours a deep red with purple edges and has earth, blackberry, some pine and currant on the nose. On the palate this definitely needs a little time to breath but once it opens up it shows black cherry, licorice, and pepper. The finish is a little hot at first but after a bit of time softens to a lengthy pleasant finish with a hint of tannin. Perfect for lamb, hamburgers or pork chops. Pick some up today while I still have some left!
