Red Wine from Languedoc Roussillon

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Starting off a retrospective of the Infiniment cuvee and sporting a vibrant, inky purple color, the 2012 IGP Côtes Catalanes Infiniment de l’Ou is made from 100% Syrah, from yields of 15 hectoliters per hectare, that was...

jebdunnuck.com, 95 points: The 2014 Igp Côtes Catalanes Infiniment de L'Ou is another terrific vintage for this cuvee. This inky colored beauty offers classic notes of blackberries, cracked pepper, tapenade and spice, full-bodied richness and a...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: One of the wines of the vintage, the 2014 Cotes du Roussillon la Vignon is the top wine of the estate and is a barrel selection of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 10% Carignan, all from the Aspres region of the Roussillon. It...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97 points: My favorite of the lineup, the 2012 Côtes du Roussillon Villages Le Clos des Fées is a sensational effort that’s most likely the wine of the vintage. Made from 50% Syrah, 20% Grenache, 20% Carignan and the rest Mourvèdre...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: Another terrific vintage for this cuvee, the Syrah and Grenache-dominated 2014 Cotes du Roussillon Villages Latour de France Occultum Lapidem was harvested between the 12th of September and the 3rd of October with...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Lastly, the 2013 Languedoc Pic Saint Loup Clos du Pic (Mourvèdre and Syrah) might just be the wine of the vintage. Sporting an inky purple/blue color as well as sensational notes of black raspberries, cassis, caramelized...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: Another single parcel release, the 2013 Minervois la Ciaude comes from the clay and rocky soils around the town of Cazelles and is mostly Carignan (100+-year-old vines) and Syrah, yet incorporates a splash of Grenache...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: (WA89-90 points) Tasted assembled and awaiting bottling, the Agly Brothers 2009 Cotes du Roussillon smells of peat and black fruits, but with a detached aura of toasted oak in the guise of lanolin, coconut, and caramel...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Another decadent, beautifully layered effort from this domaine, the 2011 Suis L'Étoile is made from 80% Grenache, 10% Carignan and 10% Syrah that was vinified and aged in older demi-muid. Loaded with ripe blackberry and...

jebdunnuck.com, 95 points: More Hermitage in style with its firm, structured feel on the palate, the 2014 Igp Côtes Catalanes Secret de Schistes sports a deep purple/plum color to go with classic Syrah notes of blackberries, bacon fat, black olives...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: (93-95 points) Slightly more elegant and focused, with chiseled notes of black raspberries, dark chocolate, pepper and spice, the 2015 Côtes du Roussillon Villages Hugo (70/30 Grenache and Syrah) is full-bodied, layered...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (91-93)+ A big, decadent red is the 2015 Côtes du Roussillon Villages les Dentelles and it shows its Grenache core with ample red and black fruits, licorice and spice, full-bodied richness, sweet tannin and a big finish...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The white grape-based Cazes 1945 Rivesaltes, smells of smoke-infused dried figs as well as saline, alkaline sea breeze. Dried fig and complexly floral honey engage with smoky, saline mineral nuances in a sustained...
