Domaine du Tix 2009 Bramefan Red (Ventoux)
This Syrah-heavy cuvée (92%) features hints of toast, woodspice and vanilla layered over lush cherry fruit. A bit modern in style perhaps, but nicely balanced and ready to drink.

Domaine du Tix 2009 Doña Maria Red (Ventoux)
This Grenache-dominated cuvée starts off with beautiful lifted aromas of clove, allspice and cherries. On the palate, it’s rich, full-bodied and savory, with plentiful tannins that balance out the ripe cherry fruit. Ambitious, and pulls it off. Drink 2012–2016.
