2010 "La Chaussynette", Vin de France, C & D Chaussy 13.5%
Effectively this is declassified Chateauneuf du Pape from the Mas de Boislauzon estate. Rippling with dark, juicy fruit and the vigour of youth, this is a must-try bargain.

2006 Lirac Rouge Cuvee de la Reine des Bois, Domaine de la Mordore 14.5%
One third each of Mourvedre, Syrah and Grenache: the equal of many a Chateauneuf. Should be approachable from 2010.

2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Tradition, Mas de Boislauzon 15.0%
Dark and extracted with the body and breadth of a hot vintage, yet all under control and structured with notes of ripe hedgerow fruit and herbs.

2000 Cote Rotie, Remillier, Rhone 12.5%
Made from old vines (up to 70 years old) this is classic Cote Rotie with peppery notes of pure Syrah. Sadly M.Remillier has passed away and the estate has never recovered the glory of the days when this was made.

2009 Rasteau Rouge, Domaine des Escaravailles, Vin Doux Naturel 16.5%
An extravagantly ripe, Grenache-based dessert wine for rich choclate puds or the cheeseboard. It is lightly fortified,but nowhere near as strong as port, with a more natural, fresher feel. Wonderful.
