The debut vintage from this new negociant operation, 1994, gives considerable promise for the success this firm is likely to enjoy. The 1994 Cotes du Rhone Cuvee Guy Louis reveals a dense ruby/purple color (there is 10% Syrah in this wine, which is otherwise dominated by Grenache), an excellent spicy, peppery-scented nose, good black fruit richness, medium to full body, and a supple texture. It is a delicious, mouthfilling Cotes du Rhone to drink over the next 5-6 years. This wine was tasted between June 1 and June 16, 1996.None of the 1994 and 1995 wines reviewed in this section had yet been bottled, but since they are bottled barrel by barrel, with no fining or filtration, the notes should be relatively reflective of the different qualitative levels.
