cassagne-hippolyte$12 at winelibrary.com.   Value, value, value and that is mainly because costieres de nimes is an up and coming unproven French region which lies between the Rhone Valley and (the also value driven) Langeudoc-Roussillon.  Sweet cherry stewed in herb stems.  I also get the classic dusty Rhone nose as well.  This wine falls into the  deisred silk mouthfeel category with mild tannins.  I get classic old world charecteristics with back end new world fruit, which creates a great balance.  I know i havent updated this site in a while but this deserved a post! Find this wine.
