Borie la Vitarelle 2004 Les Schistes Red (Saint-Chinian)
- $16
“Schist” is the soil for this wine. Old vine Syrah, Grenache and Carignan give a dusty, tannic structure to the biodynamically grown fruit, which is packed with pure acidity and flavors of herbs and black plum skins.

Borie la Vitarelle 2005 Cuvée des Cigales Red (Saint-Chinian)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $11
A very southern rosé, warm and ripe, with caramel and red fruit flavors as well as a crisp burst of acidity. A blend of Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre, it’s a great food wine for the Mediterranean diet. Like most rosés it’s a drink-now wine, as it won’t improve with age.

Borie la Vitarelle 2004 Les Terres Blanches Grenache-Syrah (Saint-Chinian)
- $15
A blend of Grenache and Syrah from the biodynamic Borie la Vitarelle estate. It’s a typically ripe southern wine, but with a good tannic structure that underlies the raisin and blackberry flavors.

Borie la Vitarelle 2005 La Cuvée des Cigales Merlot-Grenache (Vin de Pays des Coteaux de Murviel)
- $11
A simple, fresh, juicy blend of Merlot and Grenache with soft tannins and a friendly, ripe finale. Its warmth chimes well with its name: cigales are the cicadas whose noise enlivens a Mediterranean evening.
