St.-Cosme Côtes du Rhône 2020 (90 points, $20)
A solidly built version, with crushed cherry and plum puree notes that meld with melted red licorice before singed juniper takes over on the finish. This has guts and range. Drink now through 2023. 20,000 cases made, 10,000 cases imported. From France.—James Molesworth
