This property makes a serious cuvee of red wine. This wine, a 100% Syrah from the estate's oldest vines, which average nearly 40 years in age. It is aged entirely in oak barrels, of which one-half are new, and bottled unfiltered. This wine might be called the Hermitage of Provence, given its size, richness, and intensity. The opaque, dense dark ruby/purple color is accompanied by aromas of smoke, licorice, cassis, and roasted herbs. Those enticing smells are followed by a dense, chewy, wonderfully layered, medium to full-bodied wine with no hard edges. Lushness and low acidity add to the fatness and plumpness of this fruity wine. A pleasing, full-flavored offering that has soaked up its oak-aging, it should drink well for 6-7 years. Mourgues du Gres is one of the top estates of the Costieres de Nimes, an appellation south of Chateauneuf du Pape and Tavel, just north of the Languedoc-Roussillon.

Amazing! This unfiltered, 100% Syrah, aged in totally new oak casks, boasts an opaque purple color, as well as a knock-out nose of vanillin and jammy black fruits. Huge and rich on the palate, but without any heaviness, this wine is crammed with glycerin, extraction, and extremely ripe (sur-maturite in French) red and black fruits nicely buttressed by toasty new oak. This impressive, medium to full-bodied wine has low acidity and a luscious richness. Look for it to drink well for the next 7-8 years. Excellent value.
