more st laurent des arbres




these were from the same walk.

now, what we really want instead of a rant about destruction of vineyards is a wine update.

Domaine Pelaquie 2007 Laudun Cotes du Rhone Rouge. This is a great wine at an exceptional price. We tried to visit the producer in St Victor la Coste, but they were closed and they do not seem to answer their telephone. It is a dark wine with red fruit and spice, nice balance, and a polished finish. The producers have been in business for a long time. I will try to get the details of the USA market, but I recall seeing this wine available in the States. Their white offerings also are wonderful, and express their origin well. I strongly recommend this producer.
