According to the internet, the term "glou-glou" is a phrase that has evolved in the international wine community—especially within natural wine circles—into a casual descriptor for light, juicy, and ultra-refreshing styles of wine. These days, particularly these warm days, glou glou is my jam, even if these wines can be tough to find. Well, here's a terrific example that you should be able to find in the Ohio market, at least.
2022 Chapelle de Boucarut Grenache Coteaux du Pont du Gard "Empusa" $15
From the easternmost subregion of Languedoc-Roussillon comes this lighter-bodied red, crackling with tasty acidity. This wine is alive, offering tart, quenching red fruit in an energetic style. Pretty hard to put down, and very much a glou-glou wine. And at this price, load up while you can. 93 points.
