ryansnyder reviewed Maison Angelot Bugey Mondeuse 2004 on July 1, 2007 I found this Bugey in a wine shop in Walla Walla, of all places! Definitely the lowest alcohol (12%) that I've seen on the label of a bottle of red wine in the last 3 or 4 years. Made from the Mondeuse grape (from the Syrah family), this Bugey showed tart cherry, autumn spices and smidgeon of gravel. It was a nice change of pace from the over-extracted 15% ABV wines that dominate the market shelves. Pair with lighter game dishes, like a rabbit spatzle. |
