Dark and juicy, this wine offers a bit less spice and a little more concentration than the winery’s other high-end Corbieres offering, Le Pegourier. Vibrant yet intense aromas and flavors of black plum, kirsch, black berry jam and cedar dominate, with accents of cocoa and cigar box shining through on the long finish. Gripping yet well-structured in the mouth; drink Now–2015.——L.B.(5/1/2010)—— 92
