The Southwest is perhaps France's last great wine region that is still totally underappreciated. It's full of super geeky, utterly delicious wines like this beauty from L'Enclos des Braves in the Gaillac. Made from the Duras grape (yeah, that grape that everybody's TOTALLY familiar with), this darkly-fruited, herbaceous, mineral, savory little beauty is medium-bodied, juicy and remarkably fresh. Lovely! Vintage: 2021 Country: France Region: Sud-Ouest Appellation: Gaillac Grape: Duras Farming: Organic & Biodynamic Drink: Now-2028 ABV: 13.5%
