點擊次數：16200

This muscular blend of 50% Grenache and 50% Syrah features bold dark fruit notes of black cherries and plums and some chunky tannins on the finish. Drink it now with some rare red meat, or over the next several years as it gradually softens. ——J.C.(10/1/2011)—— 89

The 2008 Lirac La Dame Rousse, a blend of equal parts Grenache and Syrah, reveals a dense ruby/plum color, seductive blackberry and cassis notes interwoven with hints of licorice, smoke, and earth, medium to full body, and a silky style. It is ideal for drinking over the next 2-3 years.Although the 2009 Tavel Rose La Reine des Bois is too expensive for this report ($34.00; rated 92 points), I mention it here because for two of the last three vintages it has been the finest dry rose I have tasted from France. However, the quality of the other Mordoree roses for a much lower price are so good, it is hard to justify the higher priced La Reine des Bois.Importer: Fran Kysela, Kysela Pere et Fils, Winchester, VA; tel.
