Wondering what to drink with your dinner on a weeknight? Here are a pair of recent arrivals that are teaming up to fill the after work doldrums.
Domaine Couron is family-run estate that lies in the tiny hamlet of Saint Marcel d’Ardeche. Wine has been grown here since antiquity. Parcels are terraced at Couron, with one higher in elevation than the next. Using sustainable and practicing organic farming techniques, Jean-Luc and Marie-Lise Dorthe craft, with loving hands, wines on land once cultivated by the Romans.
2021 Domaine Couron Ardeche Rosé $10
100% Grenache
A bright, bountiful bouquet of fresh strawberries and watermelon with notes of citrus zest. Fresh, with great freshness and complexity. Full-flavored, but light-bodied mélange from light framboise and strawberry.
2019 Domaine Couron Maraselan $11
Marselan is a cross of Cab Sauv and Grenache and this one from the Ardeche is savory and layered with black plum, dark wild berries and sweet earth. It matches up with a wide range of food for everyday drinking.
