Château Pesquié Côtes-du-Ventoux Quintessence Rouge 2003

Sud de France, FranceAt Pesquié, the Quintessence Rouge is an 80/20 blend of syrah and grenache that is selected from old, south-facing vines that sit at an altitude of 230 to 260 meters. The '03 is a super warm year, aged 12 months in oak barrels (60% are new; 40 % are one or two years old). You'll love its clean fruit nose, the power and length of its licorice black fruit flavours and the supple textures. A serious Cotes du Ventoux at a very fair price — think venison, wild boar, or turkey.Tasted: 13 February 2007Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
