wine friday: l’authentique red table wine.
When I checked out from Trader Joes with this wine the checker told me this was their most popular French wine, adding it was “nearly as good as the $55 dollar bottles” she had tried.
I’m not sure I’d go that far but for the money it was quite delicious. A blend from Southern Rhone, there are no grape varietals listed on the bottle but it tastes like it’s got syrah in it to me.
Well nevermind that it’s a bit mysterious. Turn on some french noir music and pour a glass of this smooth and tasty blend.
For your consideration: L’authentique Red Table Wine.
Now I’m not saying this is a fine wine to bring to your boss’ house for dinner, but if you want a good glass of wine on a weeknight, it’s fantastic. Pair with grilled meats or a hearty stew.
$3.99 at Trader Joes.
Happy Friday!
How ’bout you? Have any sub-$10 favorites?!
I enjoyed La Vieille Ferme 2010, a Rhone Valley red blend that’s $9.99 (not quite a bargain compared to your choice). Check out my review at https://wine4cheap.wordpress.com/2012/01/14/la-vieille-ferme-2010/.
Will have to give it a try!! Thanks.
I have tried it…not bad (especially for $3.99!
I know right?! Any others you would recommend?
Thank you for your infos. I have tried L’authentique. It will will become my every day drinking wine.
