What a great find!
Chateau de Nages 2006, from the Costieres de Nimes region. The chances of finding this particular one in your U.S. wine shop are probably infinitesimal, but try something from the region at least. Nice rich dark fruit flavors with a woody undertone and hints of smoke. Dry but not puckering, this one's made from a blend of grenache and syrah grapes. Would work great with beef kabobs or even some sort of beef dish with a light cream sauce. All this for less than 8 euros (or about $10.50), better than some at twice the price.
