I have been following the wines of this estate in Corbieres for a number of years and continue to find the winemaking to be of very high quality. This large domaine consists of 197 acres, from which an entire range of white, red, and rose wines is produced, as well as small quantities of Fitou. For me, the best two wines are consistently the Corbieres-Cuvee Tradition (25,000 cases) and the Cuvee Bicentenaire (6,000 cases produced annually). Both wines are made from 40% Grenache, 35% Carignan, 13% Mourvedre, and 12% Syrah. The Cuvee Bicentenaire benefits from additional aging in new oak casks, as well as being a selection from the estate's older vines. Proprietor Henri Gualco has fashioned two attractive 1988s. The Corbiere-Cuvee Tradition is a fat, succulent, black-cherry, herb-scented and flavored wine with soft, fleshy flavors, a good spicy component, and a long, heady, alcoholic finish. It should be drunk over the next 2-3 years. Importer: a Christopher Cannan Selection - various importers.
