Also looked after by Philippe Cambie, the 2009 Faure-Brac Laudun was named after the famous sommelier in Paris. Composed of 60% old vine Grenache (aged in concrete tanks) and 40% Syrah (aged in barrels), this sensational effort is the finest wine I have ever tasted from Laudun. Its opaque ruby/purple color is followed by a deep ruby/purple-hued, full-bodied wine offering hints of charcoal, incense, forest floor, white flowers and black fruits. It should age nicely for 7-8 years.
This outstanding Lirac estate is an emerging star in the southern Rhone. From their biodynamic and/or organic vineyards, they produce three separate cuvees of Lirac. Well-known oenologist Philippe Cambie is the consultant at Domaine Duseigneur. Importer: Peter Weygandt, Weygandt-Metzler, Unionville, PA; tel. (610) 486-0800
