"Reminiscent of terrific Chateauneuf du Pape, the 2014 Cotes du Roussillon Villages Les Orris is a blend of 45% Mourvèdre, 30% Syrah and 25% Grenache that spent 12 months in 40% new barrels. It offers lots of black raspberry, graphite, peppery spice and savory notes as well as solid concentration on the palate, medium to full-bodied richness and a great finish. It still has some oak to integrate, so give it a year or two in the cellar. It should drink nicely . . . . Located just outside the village of Corneilla-de-la-Rivière, Domaine Boucabeille is run today by the young Jean Boucabeille and covers 28 hectare of vines planted mostly on the steep, schist, south-facing hillsides of the Forca Real Mountain. The farming here is all organic and the winemaking is as non-intrusive as possible. These are high quality wines."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
A late-ripening red lending structure, dark fruit and gamey, meaty complexity to southern Rhone and Mediterranean blends.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
