AOC Costières de Nîmes in France’s southern Rhône Valley produces versatile, food-friendly wines with good acidity and minerality, thanks to the Mediterranean-Rhône terroir: sunny, cool breezes and mineral-rich alluvial soils. Wines include velvety reds and vibrant rosés from Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah, and vivacious whites from Grenache Blanc, Marsanne and Roussanne. Vintner Anthony Taylor, Maison Gabriel Meffre, discusses styles and food pairings.
