Domaine Corne-Loup Cotes du Rhone Rouge

From a great Rhone wine family -- Domaine Corne Loup is located in Tavel, fairly close to their cousins at Domaine de la Mordorée.
The name "Corne Loup" is the name given to this part of the Tavel Village, where, in olden times, someone would blow the horn (“corne”) in order to warn others of a sighting of a wolf (“loup”) coming into town.
