Slightly better is the value-priced 2008 Cotes du Rhone Guy Louis. A blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah, it offers lovely berry fruit intermixed with garrigue, pepper, and lavender in a medium-weight, moderately-endowed style. It should drink nicely for 3-4 years.

This lush wine will be too oaky for purists, but there is no denying the superb quality of the underlying fruit. It’s full-bodied, soft and succulent in texture, with cassis fruit framed by ample cedar and vanilla. A blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah. Drink now–2018. ——J.C.(8/1/2011)—— 90
