so long is not pink wine.... i am willing to try anything at last once

pink wine... is not wine (for me) not red, not white... somewhere 'in between' that mother nature did not intent to create -g

even though i will admit that in my younger days, i did drink some mateus.... it was like my personal dark ages as far as wine drinking goes...

would gigondas and st. joseph (in general) tend to be quite hearty wines ? i think i tried a wine from gigondas long ago, but i do not recall ever trying anything from st joseph

i will look for them and see what i find....

<I actually enjoy lots of wine that others I know find disgusting. Gigondas and Saint Joseph>

I can't recall drinking Saint Joseph but Gigondas tends to be spectacular IMO. For those that like strong taste to be eaten with strong meat flavors IMO.

<Being a little brother of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the wine is moderately prestigious and can yield beautiful results when treated with care.[1]>

I guess you could call it a sometimes unruly little brother of Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Nobody I ever share a bottle with found Gigondas disgusting-just the opposite.
