With its scents of cherry preserves, spice and leather, this is a more approachable wine than proprietor Stephane Robert’s 2005. The lower acidity gives it a sense of lushness, but it’s also slightly less concentrated and intense. Drink now–2014.

Shows superripe, almost jammy aromas of cherries and plums, but those are balanced by sprinklings of minerals and spice. Creamy on the palate, the wine gains focus on the finish, where it leans toward cranberries and dusty tannins. Hold until 2012, at least.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
On the toasty, oaky side, but with just enough citrus and melon fruit to support it, this is a creamy, lush rendition of Saint-Péray that does a nice job integrating the oak into the body of the wine. The final impression is one of harmony and elegance. Drink now-2012.
