Les Vignerons de la Méditerranée 2005 Cuvée Mythique Limited Release Red (Corbières)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive
- $42
A rich and beautiful wine with a lush, full weight and velvety texture. Typical black fruit abounds with accents of milk chocolate, thyme and eucalyptus. A hint of grapefruit oil adds vibrancy to the nose, transcending a more traditional Corbières offering. The finish is long and lingering but a bit tight with strong tannic presence; drink 2010 on. Only 50 cases…

Les Vignerons de la Méditerranée 2003 Cuvée Mythique Limited Release Red (Corbières)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
Although only 55% Syrah, it really shows in this top bottling. Hickory smoke and game notes give a wild, untamed character to the cassis and blueberry fruit, which finishes surprisingly fresh. Drink now-2012.

Les Vignerons de la Méditerranée 2001 Cuvée Mythique Red (Vin de Pays d'Oc)
- $17
Big ripe modern fresh berry fruits give this wine an immediate appeal. But there's more to it. With layers of wood, soft tannins and flavors of herbs and acidity, this wine has complexity as well. Drink now, but age for five years.

Les Vignerons de la Méditerranée 2005 Cuvée Mythique Réserve Red (Corbières)
- Online Exclusive
- $21
With 250 cases imported, this Reserve is easier to acquire, half the price and almost as satisfying as the brand’s Limited Release offering. Loaded with influence of the surrounding garrigue, including bay leaves and sage, aromas and flavors of black cherries, plum skin, violets and tar also abound. Velvety in texture and full in the mouth with a long, evolving…

Les Vignerons de la Méditerranée NV Petit Grain Muscat Blanc à Petit Grain (Muscat de Saint-Jean de Minervois)
- Online Exclusive
All the honey and perfumes of Muscat are in this bottle, which has a ripeness balanced by a freshness which make it irresistible. The texture is properly oily, silky perhaps, with just the right touch of acidity.

Les Vignerons de la Méditerranée 2004 Cuvée Mythique Réserve Red (Corbières)
- Online Exclusive
- $22
This has been a steady source over the years for reasonably rich, satisfying wines from the Languedoc. The 2004 Réserve has a velvety feel to its tannins, giving it a touch more polish than usual, plus dark flavors of leather, cola and earth--even a hint of bacon on the finish. Drink it over the next few years.

Les Vignerons de la Méditerranée 2006 La Cuvée Mythique Red (Vin de Pays d'Oc)
- $15
Delicious and inviting with notes of eucalyptus, chocolate-covered cherries and wild raspberries on the nose. The palate exhibits darker flavors by way of black cherry and plum, fleshing out the solidly structured medium weight mouth. A moderate, evolving finish closes nicely with a kiss of sweet oak.

Nearly always a decent value, this vintage has turned out even better than usual, offering berry and milk chocolate aromas and flavors that are fresh and fruit driven. Nicely textured on the finish, with soft tannins that make it easy to drink.
