Cotes du Crow's: A Rhône-Inspired Symphony
This captivating blend draws inspiration from the sun-drenched slopes of France's southern Rhône Valley, masterfully combining its two noble red varietals: Grenache and Syrah. Elevating the complexity, we've added subtle touches of Mourvèdre and Tempranillo, their earthy spice and dark fruit notes providing a perfect counterpoint to the vibrant Grenache-Syrah duo.
Our winemaking approach honors tradition while embracing innovation. Open-top fermentation tanks and manual punch-downs ensure optimal extraction, developing a robust structure with elegantly balanced tannins. Post-fermentation, the wine matures in French oak barrels, imparting delicate spice and vanilla nuances that enhance rather than overpower the wine's inherent fruit character.
Tasting Notes
- In the glass, this Rhône-style blend presents a rich ruby core, rimmed by enticing purple hues.
- The nose is an alluring tapestry of boysenberry, wild bramble, and refined tobacco.
- On the palate, the wine's full-bodied nature shines through, supported by well-integrated tannins. Flavors cascade from lush black fruits to hints of damp earth, culminating in notes of chocolate-covered cherries.
The wine's impressive weight and impeccable balance make it a natural companion for grilled dishes of all kinds. Whether paired with a flame-kissed steak or smoky vegetables, Cotes du Crow's promises to elevate your dining experience with its bold yet harmonious profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is all your inventory online?
We try to keep the store as updated as possible, but we always get new shipments. So if you don't see what you are looking for, send an email, and we'll check to see what Moose is hiding in the back room.
Why is beer available as in-store pick-up only?
Our temperature-controlled storage systems preserve beer's quality and flavor until pickup. By maintaining precise refrigeration, we protect each batch's unique characteristics and ensure customers receive the freshest possible product.
However, due to the challenges of maintaining consistent temperature during shipping, we exclusively offer in-store pickup for our craft beers.
What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
