Domaine Lafond Rhône-style Red Blend -2000 (WE-106950)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Close to mature, the 2000 La Ferme Romaine features smoky, bacony aromas alongside hints of leather and black cherries. Has a slightly coarse, open-knit texture and tannins that may not ever fully resolve, but would offer a fine counterpoint to rich braises or stews. 1 Note

Prieuré Saint-Sixte Carignan -2004 (WE-62640)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

A blend of 80% old-vine Carignan and 20% Grenache, unusual for Lirac. The result is a wine loaded with acidity in 2004, maybe too much acidity. Red fruits carry a bass note of mushroom, finishing with tart cranberries. 1 Note

Domaine Lafond Rhône-style Red Blend -2003 (WE-106952)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Like many '03s, this looked better young. Now the heat of the year is showing in the wine's loose structure, roasted notes and dry tannins. It still has plenty of anise and other spice notes alongside a modicum of plummy fruit, but drink up. 1 Note

Domaine Lafond Rhône-style Red Blend -2005 (WE-106954)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Still showing some toasty oak notes, but this is a powerful vintage that should completely integrate the oak within another year or so. Leather and cinnamon accent black cherry fruit in this rich, round, mouthfilling expression of Lirac. Drink 2010-2018. 1 Note

Domaine Lafond Rhône-style Red Blend -2001 (WE-106951)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Deep and dark, this is a top vintage for La Ferme Romaine. The tannins are plentiful but creamy in texture, while the rich flavors approximate chocolate and licorice. Drink now-2015, possibly longer. 1 Note

Domaine Castel Oualou Rosé -2005 (WE-61572)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Tons of berries here, very clean and pure in nature, which might be this wine’s only shortcoming—is it too clean and pristine? Offers fresh, mouthwatering berry fruit and a long finish. Ideal picnic juice. 1 Note

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

At 10 years of age, this wine features plenty of spice and vanilla. The fruit is ripe and supple, but slightly obscured by wood, and some wood tannins continue to dominate the finish. 1 Note

Ready to drink when tasted at the end of 2008, this is a supple, pretty vision of Lirac, with black-cherry flavors marked by a smoky, bacony edge. Now-2012. 1 Note
