A blend of grenache, mourvedre, syrah and cinsault from young vines 4-20 years old. Dark ruby/garnet core with brilliant intensity. The pretty perfume of black fruit dominates the nose on this wine with secondary notes of roasted meat and loamy soil. Spice, black fruit and garrigue fill the palate, while the earthy terroir of clay and crushed mineral is framed by well-positioned tannins and bright acidity that focuses the fruit nicely. This is balanced with excellent concentration.

The Perrin et Fils 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Sinards completes a very impressive line-up. Dense ruby, with licorice, sweet cherry, and lavender notes, this full-bodied, admirably concentrated wine can be drunk now or over the next 10-12 years.

This delivers the ripe, plum, boysenberry and blueberry fruit profile of the vintage, with good underlying sweet toast and spice notes. Slightly raisiny on the finish, but there's enough fresh anise and rounded tannins to offset that. Drink now through 2011. 8,330 cases made. -JM
