Reviews and Ratings

From Domaine Lafage, Cuvée Nicolas 2018 is produced from Old Vines Grenache Noir from the Côtes Catalanes, Roussillon wine region. Great value under $20. Look for strawberry compote, ripe dark cherry, baking spice and a toasty oak finish on this medium-plus-bodied 100% Grenache Noir with good acidity for food and mildly grippy tannins. Pair with a pork chops from the grill. - Community Wine Reviews
