Full bodied without being heavy and fruit driven without being confected, this is a well-made Châteauneuf-du-Pape imported in sufficient quantities to make it reasonbly available (2,000 cases). Plum and licorice flavors finish dusty and long. Drink now–2015.

Vignobles La Coterie 2010 Pierre du Diable Red (Ventoux)
Less bright and perfumed than La Coterie’s Passe Colline bottling, this is still a soft, approachable wine with ample cherry fruit. Hints of leather and white pepper give it a bit of complexity. The blend is 65% Grenache, 25% Syrah and 10% Carignan.
