not my style.
JL Chave Hermitage rouge is what I'm talking about. That's one of my favorite wines and will indicate the style of wine I prefer. I do very much enjoy Cornas -- Clape is probably my favorite but do like them with 10+ years of age. I drink very little St. Joseph and don't really like white Rhones in general.
