Bears a striking resemblance to blueberry pie in its aromas. Lighter than expected on the palate, before fading on the finish. A pleasant lunch mate to pâté or charcouterie. 1 Note

As the label states, this is a blend of 75% Syrah, 25% Grenache, 0% Cork. The slickly packaged, screw-capped wine is young and grapy, featuring bright bouncy fruit accented by peppery spice. Perhaps because of the vintage, it’s rather light, yet shows firm tannins on the finish, making it a burger wine for drinking over the next year or so. 1 Note

Youthful and overt jammy blackberry, raspberry, kirsch and vanilla aromas. Mouthwatering and plush with youthful cherry-berry fruit and vanilla cream. A little one-dimensional, but clean, fresh and easy to drink. Medium bodied with soft tannins. 1 Note

The new VF line from Beaucastel’s Perrin family is a stunning statement of affordable quality. Screw-capped and plainly packaged, Lasira delivers the goods where it counts: in the bottle. The blend is three-quarters Syrah, one-quarter Grenache, and as the label points out, 0% cork. Bright, spicy and showing sharp berry flavors, this fruit and acid-driven bottling is a classy new wine for a new generation of wine drinkers. 1 Note

Exhibits superripe Grenache aromas and flavors of apricots and cherries, all in a midweight format. Some peppery notes chime in on the finish, adding welcome spice to this otherwise soft and fruity wine. 1 Note

Throwing a healthy sediment already, this blend of Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre could actually use another six months or so to drop additional tannin. It’s an unusually forceful vintage for this wine, which is usually friendly and forward. Although in many years it tends toward red fruit flavors, the 2001 is graced with black cherry fruit and complex notes of tree bark, earth and pepper. 1 Note

Wow. This classy, ripe chateau-bottled rosé is from the eastern Langeudoc, sometimes called Chateâuneuf-du-Pape South. Mainly Syrah with a little Grenache, it was fermented in steel to preserve freshness, and oak-aged. Smooth and ripe in cherries, with fresh Provençal herbs and a hint of flowers, it has minerally acids and tons of finesse. Full enough to drink with red meats. 1 Note

There’s not a lot of intensity here, but some good lemony crispness and an intriguing popcorn note. Drink now, this one is on fast fade. 1 Note
