If I had to pick an everyday red wine that gets it done without becoming tiresome, it would be a juicy, peppered Vin de Pays de Vaucluse. Kinda like this one from one of our favorite importers, the inimitable Aline Thiebault. It’s the essence of French Grenache with a lipsmacking cherry taste, round fruit, and peppery spices. Who needs Gigondas when this stuff exists for under a twenty note.
