Score 87/100 · Drink 2003-2007, Pierre Rovani, Feb 2002
The dark ruby/purple-colored 2000 Cotes du Roussillon-Villages is a blend of 52% Syrah, 34% Mourvedre, and 14% Carignan. It has a deep and sexy nose of candied raspberries and sweat, reminiscent of a top-flight, young northern Rhone Syrah from a hot vintage. On the palate it reveals gorgeous breadth, loads of blackberry fruit, and a rustic, firm finish. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2007. Importer: Martin Sinkoff Wines, Inc., Dallas, TX; tel. (214) 528-8467.
