| Charbonniere CDP Perdrix 03 |
| The 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Mourre des Perdrix reveals a saturated dark ruby/purple-tinged color as well as a classic perfume of black cherries, raspberries, flowers, and a notion of barnyard/earth. With a fleshy texture, medium to full body, loads of depth, low acidity, ripe tannin, and wonderful sweetness, purity, and overall elegance, it resembles a synthesis in style between a grand cru Cotes de Nuits and a Chateauneuf du Pape. |

| Pallieres Gigondas 03 |
WA Rating: 90
This is a large, complicated domaine because of so
many different parcels and micro-climates. The wine spends a year in
tank after which a selection is made, and it is moved to old wood
foudres for the second year. The 2003 Les Pallieres, which embodies the
essence of Provence, reveals bold notes of garrigue, pepper, herbes de
Provence, saddle leather, and plenty of kirsch and earth. The wine is
medium-bodied, ripe, but has slightly drier tannins than the more
seamless 2004. The 2003 is an impressive, hefty Les Pallieres that
should drink well for 10-12 years.
