2021 Chateau Pegau Cotes du Rhone Lone Blanc



2021 Chateau Pegau Cotes du Rhone Lone Blanc...$19.99
40% Clairette - 30% Bourboulenc, 20% Grenache Blanc, and 10% Ugni Blanc
"A heck of white, the 2021 Côtes Du Rhône Cuvée Lone Blanc"Jeb Dunnuck
Self-confidently funky, full-bodied dry white that might remind some of high-end sauvignon blanc or others of dry riesling. Concentrated and well structured, this has plenty of drive, though not that much fruit. Long, crisp finish with plenty of spring-meadow character. Drink or hold.
Rated 92/100 James Suckling
Château Pegau is a family owned Châteauneuf-du-Pape label, owned and managed by the iconic winemaker, Laurence Féraud. The château is located in exceptional terroir, situated less than 4 miles southeast of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Named “Lône” after the small stream that runs next to the 100+ acre estate and is an offshoot of the Rhône River.

A pretty complex nose of cherries, berries, dried herbs, cola and baking spices. It’s medium-bodied with finely grained tannins. Round and juicy with a bright core of cherries and some chocolate undertones towards the finish. Balanced and delicious with a vivid finish. Drink or hold.
Rated 92/100 James Suckling

A step up, the 2020 Côtes Du Rhône Villages Cuvée Setier offers more purity and elegance, with a great nose of ripe darker, almost black fruits, pepper, leather, and herbes de Provence. This medium-bodied, pure, seamless, terrifically balanced 2020 is perfect for drinking any time over the coming 7-8 years.
Rated 91/100 Jeb Dunnuck

A cuvée offering a concentrated nose of cassis, licorice, black cherry and tar, with ripe, well-structured tannins, intense fruit, and a long, lingering finish.  A food-friendly wine that is especially good with bold, flavorful red meat preparations such as pepper-rubbed steak and lamb tagine.

It's Margarita Season! Check out this Bargain Triple Sec!

 


DuBouchett Triple Sec Liqueur 1 LITER...$6.99 on sale (reg price $8.99) 
Triple sec is a popular orange-flavored, clear liqueur featured in your favorite, indulgent cocktails including cosmopolitans, mai tais, Long Island iced teas and margaritas; while a pervasive product no doubt, most recipes call for just a small amount of triple sec, thanks to its bright and bold flavor.

Like many French liqueurs, triple sec was originally designed to be a digestif, something indulgent to sip neat after dinner or with dessert, but today, it’s most often combined with popular cocktail recipes to deliver a hardy punch of citrus flavor.

This is a multi-purpose essential for any at-home bartender, at a great price!
