WTN: The road less Traverses-d

by Jenise » Thu Jul 31, 2025 11:43 am

2018 Paul Jaboulet Aîné Ventoux Les Traverses Red Rhone Blend
A $10 bin-end buy just last week, at 7 years out from vintage this wine's in a perfect place for current drinking. Evolved syrah of juicy dark red and black fruit and red meat with tapenade and garrique--a very pleasing Southern Rhone and a steal for the price.
My wine shopping and I have never had a problem. Just a perpetual race between the bankruptcy court and Hell.--Rogov

Did you see that the winemaker for Jaboulet resigned last week?

Yes - out of La Lagune and Château Corton C. in Burgundy. Too bad, I thought she did a good job!
