- Drew - 05-30-2002 Now here's a keeper! Dark ruby/purple. Initial yeasty nose that blew off revealing spice and smoky plum. Rich rhone flavors of plum,earth,spice and smoke and a mid palate note of milk chocolate. Silky mouth feel and a long finish. Great buy at $10.99 make this a good QPR. Really delicious! 14%Alc/vol. Here's the makeup of this wine. Grenache (50-60%) Syrah (12-15%) Mourvèdre Cinsault Cournoise Carignan Drew [This message has been edited by Drew (edited 05-30-2002).] - mrdutton - 05-30-2002 Right up my alley....... If I can find this juice I'll give it a try. Thanks for the info, Drew! - Drew - 06-02-2002 BTW, this wine sorta reminds me of the '98 Ch. De La Negly, Coteaux du Languedoc, only more fruit forward and a little more complex...going back for a case. Drew - winoweenie - 06-02-2002 Putting out tentacles immediately. WW - Drew - 09-15-2004 Popped my last bottle the other night and it's singing loudly. Beautiful sweet, funky, earthy, syrah flavors. Very smooth and delicious...I do love good CDR and CDP. Drew |
