Score 89/100 · Drink 2008-2010, David Schildknecht, Wine Advocate, Aug 2008
The 2005 Cotes du Roussillon Les Sorcieres – from equal measures Carignan and Grenache plus 10% Syrah, all grown in Vingrau and Tautavel, and matured in tank and large oaken ovals – exudes fetching aromas of cherry preserves, buddleia-like floral perfume, and talcum powder. This wine’s sweetness of fruit is balanced by an almost tactile mineral sense of wet stone and graphite. The satisfyingly rich finish is very slightly touched by heat. Enjoy it over the next two years. Importer: Eric Solomon Selections, Charlotte, NC; tel. (704) 358-1565
