Wine Spectator Review
Rated 91
Very pure-tasting and powerful, with unctuous flavors of dark plum, mincemeat, raspberry ganache and black olive. There's lots of dark chocolate and espresso notes on the muscular finish. Drink now through 2015.

Wine Tasting Notes
Tautavel produces a wine with exceptional style and a bouquet of ripe fruits (blackcurrants, blackberries), crystallized fruit and spices. The wine offers depth on the palate and a pleasant sweet finish with long tannins with light spices. 50% Grenache, 35% Syrah, 15% Carignan
