Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, June 2011

The early-release 2010 Cairanne (70% Grenache and 30% Syrah made from vines between 40 and 105 years of age) was aged in a combination of cement and neutral oak. It has a dense purple color (slightly more saturated than the 2009) and loads of primary yet intense blueberry, black raspberry and cherry fruit intermixed with lavender and licorice. Full-bodied, intense, fresh, with sweet tannin, this is another beauty that over-delivers. Drink it over the next 2-3 years.


Tracey Rose, JJ Buckley, September 2012

Saturated dark purple color. 70% grenache and 30% syrah. Brooding nose exhibits inky aromas of truffle and cigar box. A monster for this region with big and bold flavors of black plum, dark chocolate, and kirsch backed by a chewy mouthful of tannins and tangy cherry flavor that lifts and refreshes the palate. Decant for early drinking or give this a couple of years in bottle to allow the components to integrate more fully. Great stuff! Second vintage from Romain Roche, with Phillippe Cambie consulting.

About Winery

Philippe Cambie introduced us to the young, talented, and rising talent in Cairanne. Romain Roche (not yet 30 years old) has inherited the historic 15 ha domaine of his parents. Like many young emerging growers his parents sold all the grapes to the famous negoce. 2009 is his first vintage bottled for his domaine under the watchful tutelage of Philippe Cambie. The vineyards are between 40 and 105 years old with an average age of 60 years.
