WOW: Wine of the Week
Our Favorite Thanksgiving Party Pleaser!
Remember that saying, "Less is More?" This week Uncorked is going to
let this wine, it's price and the value speak for itself.
From the Rhone Valley comes a $12.99 Cotes du Rhone that is a TRUE
crowd pleaser. It is the perfect accompaniment to food - or perfect
with no food at all.
Product Description
The Moillard family has been cultivating vines in
Nuits-Saint-Georges since the French Revolution. The arrival of the
railway in Nuits-Saint-Georges opened up new commercial opportunities
and the Maison Moillard began its activity as wine merchants in 1850.
In 1870, Symphorien Moillard’s son died while serving with the
French Army in Algeria. His sister, Jeanne Moillard, took over the
family trade and continued the tradition of the Maison Moillard.
In 1873, she married Maurice Thomas, himself an owner of Burgundy vineyards.
From generation to generation, the Thomas family extended the properties, buying up precious plots and developing the trade.

Moillard "Les Violettes" Cotes du Rhone 2011 Tasting Notes
"Easy to drink. Sour cherries until it opens up. Let it open up for
an hour or two and you get wonderful hints of barnyard on the palette." -
