Oh! Sweet and spicy and floral and woody. Denser, darker, more intense and intricate. More pedigree./ Sweet raspberry pastille. Way, way rich and complex, with great scope and depth. Great stuff. Will improve 3-5+ years. Wish I’d had more time to study this pair. Each had so much to say. We used to admire and buy these. Then the price went up, and pleas to sample went unanswered. I guess 07 is as good a vintage as any to start back in. And rival wines have gone up in price so that this pair doesn’t seem so expensive. Boy, these are great! I hope to sell a lot! 94+/100.

How Many bottles/singles: 22.99 each

RHO-330. 06 COTEAUX DU LANGUEDOC BRONZINELLE, DOM ST MARTIN DE LA GARRIGUE
Parker 90 - SUPERB VALUE: ‘Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, and a bit of Carignan, treated to some time in small barrels. Full of sweet red cherry fruit tinged with vanilla, cinnamon, faintly bitter cherry pit accents and a pleasant toasted note that makes for an effect like freshly baked cherry pie with a lightly singed crust. Richly textured, and with its slight surplus in tannin vis-a-vis the Tradition bottling, well swathed in folds of fruit, this seamless wine finishes with more than enough juicy fruit unimpeded by barrel and an alluring, lingering spiciness. There is no need to wait, but this should keep nicely for several years.’

How Many bottles/singles: 23.99 each

Starts out surprisingly cool and compact for 07. Licorice laced. Well built. With aeration the 07 fruit ripeness starts to come out. Even a touch of singed fruit./ Bold and full.

RHO-340. 07 VIN DE PAYS D’HAUTERIVE SYRAH, LA BASTIDE
Parker 88 - AMAZING VALUE: ‘Exuberant and bright, and its combination of black pepper, black cherry, beef juices, tar, and violets puts one in mind of the Northern Rhone. Finishing with sappy persistence, this will serve admirably for the next couple of years.’
How Many bottles/singles: 9.99 each

RHO-341. 07 COTES CATALANES CUVEE JEAN PAUL, DOM DES SOULANES

How Many bottles/singles: 13.99 each

RHO-344. 03 CASSAN TEMPRANILLO DOM LA TOUR PENEDESSES MAS DE COUX
Oh, neat to have some French tempranillo! I know they grow it there, but rarely see it. Big, handsome black fruits, tobacco, spices. Also smoke, anise, chocolate, black cherry, and lavender. Quite the complex aroma range. Very confident of its future too./ Very spicy, briary palate, with blackberry, clove, garrigue, mace, and some sense of woodiness. Lots of vigor and texture.

How Many bottles/singles: 12.99 each

RHO-349. 06 OC MARSELAN, CAMPLAZENS
Marselan is a cross of cabernet sauvignon and grenache developed in France, likely at Montpellier in the Midi. Yes! That funky combo of sweet, ripe, smoky grenache and the blackberry influence of cabernet. Nicely forward now. That’s one of the assets of this variety./ Sweet and spicy. Soft around the edges, with good acidity at the heart, giving a juicy taste. Again, the sweet, smoky, spicy appeal of teriyaki beef plus the plump, woodsy berriness. Lots of panache. Last tasted 12/08, this has retained its freshness and has softened and broadened nicely. The group was fascinated with this. 90+/100.

RHO-360. 09 COSTIERES DE NIMES ROSE LES GALETS, CH MOURGUES DU GRES
Revue du Vin de France: ‘In a few years, Mourgues du Gres has become in our opinion the best domaine of Costieres de Nimes, thanks to the stunning openness of its red and rose wines which are essentially pure Syrah. The domaine offers an inordinately magnificent rose that expresses a raciness of fruit and density that is rare.’
How Many bottles/singles: 13.99 each

RHO-361. 09 MINERVOIS ROSE, DOM DONJON

How Many bottles/singles: 10.99 each

RHO-374. 08 CATALAN COTE EST, LAFAGE
Parker 90 - MIND-BOGGLING VALUE: ‘From Chardonnay, Marsanne, and old Grenache Blanc vines on cobbled soils near the coats, blended with the fruit of centenarian Grenache Gris vines on Pyrenean schist. The wine is aged in tank on its fine lees and the result is not only irresistibly delicious but truly complex. Orange and lime zest, white pepper, narcissus, fennel, and mint in the nose lead to a juicy, bright palate with musky floral perfume and a shimmering interchange of citrus with wet stone, salt, iodine, and other ineffable mineral elements. This will fascinate and refresh in qual measure as well as fiendishly insinuate itself into your culinary regimen ov e the next 9-12 months, and could be held a bit longer without fear.’
