Wasn't planning on getting a bottle but saw this as I was casually browsing through the wine list for $115 (internet says it goes for ~$99 retail). Definitely wasn't expecting to find deals at a hotel lobby bar wine list!

Don't have a ton of experience with northern Rhones but I've loved everything I've tried. This was no exception - 2018 E Guigal Brune et Blanc - 96% Syrah / 4% Viogier.

Medium bodied, medium plus tannins but still with really pleasant acidity that kept it in balance. Dark fruit, ripe blackberry and plum, gave way to licorice, pepper and notes of mocha, chocolate and oak. Super crushable.
