ALLURE

RHONE STYLE RED WINE
Allure Label

Following the footsteps of the famous Cote du Rhone of southern France, our delicious blend utilizes a combination of grape varietals to achieve this light, but exciting red wine.   Allure is aged in oak barrels which allows the wine to be extremely complex, yet its rich, soft and supple flavors presents an attractive alternative to the many tannic wines available in the market.   Previous vintages of the Allure were rated in Robert Parker's Top 100 Wine Buys and have been Best Buys in the Wine Spectator.   The '94 Allure was also rated as one of the Top 100 Best Buys from the Wine Enthusiast's 1997 World Wine Championships.   Enjoy this with your favorite fish, meat and poultry dishes or simply by the glass.

Rabbit Ridge Allure Red California 1995 $7

What a deal.   Bright and appealing for its harmony and balance, this blend of Syrah, Mourvedre, Carignane, Grenache and Cinsault isn't a blockbuster, but a nicely restrained mouthful of tasty juice. Ready now, it's a smart buy when the occasion calls for more than one bottle. 20,000 cases made. - H.S.

Lean and a bit oaky with a narrow band of cherry and spice flavors that remain tight and tannic through the finish.   Drink now. 2,500 cases produced.
