Rhone Valley Wines

CdP went up a lot with the release of the 06'. Dollar/Euro had a big effect on this just as the wines were getting ready to be released. Some of the ones I buy like the Clos St Jean went up over $20 a bottle. Ouch!

For mid tier Cornas I like Eric y Joel Durand which you can probably find for around $40 to $50. It's not Clape but its pretty good. I believe Kermit Lynch is the importer but am not sure.
