#F0EE226035GRM
UPC code: 7 84585 00113 2
2007 Château de Ségriès,
Lirac Rouge, Cuvée
Réservée
12/750ml
Yield: 40 hl/ha.
Age of the vines: 40 years.
Manual harvest.
50% Grenache, 30% Syrah,
10% Cinsault, 5% Mourvèdre, 5% Carignan.
Deep
blueberry and forest aromas precede the very long flavors of
black cherry, bramble and black pepper. Muscular and packed,
finishes with drying tannins.
"A
brilliant red wine which requires another 6-12 months of
bottle age. A combination of 50% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and the
rest Cinsault, Mourvèdre, and Carignan, it exhibits a dense
ruby/purple hue as well as a big, bold aromatic display of
fresh mushrooms, tree bark, blueberries and black cherries.
Deep textured, full-bodied, powerful, and muscular with some
tannin to shed, this offering should be forgotten for a year
or so, and consumed over the following decade."

"A
blend of 50% Grenache and the rest mostly Syrah with small
amounts of Cinsault and Carignan, offers plenty of earth,
lavender, pepper, raspberry, and kirsch notes. The wine’s
sweet tannins along with good purity and ripeness are
characteristics of the wonderful vintage. Drink it over the
next 2-3 years. "

"The
2006 Cotes du Rhone, primarily Grenache (50% and the balance
30% Syrah, 10% Cinsault, and 10% Carignan, is richly fruity,
peppery, spicy, with copious black and red fruit and garrigue,
this medium-bodied wine is best consumed over the next 2-3
years."
- Wine Advocate (#178, Aug. 08), 88 pts
"The slightly smoky bouquet shows off
Provencal herbs overlying rich black fruit aromas and a touch
of oak spice; medium full, the palate displays nice richness,
with the black fruit flavors turning over to some more tart
red cherry and raspberry flavors; good, firm tannins and a
long, dry finish wrap things up tastefully; weight and
structure to serve with heartier dishes."

UPC code: 7 84585 00213 9
2007 Côtes du Rhône
Rouge, Clos de l'Hermitage
6/750
ml
Yield:
40 hl/ha / Age of the vines: 40 years.
This 3.5 hectare vineyard, located
in the
famous “Quartier de la Chartreuse de
Villeneuve-les-Avignon”, has been owned by the Formula 1 race car
driver Jean Alesi since 1995. It is
managed by
Château de Ségriès.
The
wine consists of 33% Grenache, 33%, Syrah and 33% Mourvèdre.
Vinification: 21 days skin
maceration in temperature controlled concrete vats, 9 months
oak aging, 5% new French oak from Seguin Moreau cooper and 95%
of 1 year old barrels.
"A
remarkable wine, and even at $30 a bottle, it represents a
fabulous bargain. Made from 40-year-old vines, it is an equal
part blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. Its opaque
purple color is followed by a bouquet that smells more like a
Côte Rôtie than a Côtes du Rhône. Flowery notes intermixed
with tapenade, group pepper, roasted meats, and a copious
black cherry and blackberry fruit soar from the glass. The
wine possesses fabulous density, a rich, full-bodied style,
and present but sweet tannin. It should drink gorgeously for
10-12 years, perhaps longer. "

2006 Côtes du Rhône
Rouge, Clos de l'Hermitage
6/750
ml
"The
inky/purple blockbuster 2006 Clos de l'Hermitage (managed by
Segries, but the estate is owned by Formula One race car Jean
Alesi) is an equal part blend of Syrah, Grenache, and
Mourvedre aged in old barrels. Truffle, incense, black fruit,
and licorice are followed by a full-bodied, muscular, dense
wine to drink over the next decade."
