Hecht & Bannier, Cotes du Roussillon Villages 2003

Deep red.

Vinturi - Spicy herbs, iron, cherry liqueur and toasted nut nose. Very interesting/integrated/attractive.

Round with a slight textural sweetness matched immediately by grainy density/concentration and moderate acid/tannin chew. Shows herbs, iron and cherry liqueur in the mouth, too. RFG and just stupid $$. I'd drink this over the next three years.


$20. Mostly Grenache, with Carignan, Mourvedre and Syrah.
