Cotes du Rhone Le Vent Rouge 2010, £9.25, Oddbins, Rhythm and Booze Another generic French wine, this time the traditional blend of Grenache, Syrah (Shiraz) and Mourvedre grapes that mark out Cote du Rhone reds.

Strawberries and raspberries are the fruits to the fore and it’s silky smooth and quite light but strongish for a Gallic offering at 13.3 per cent.
