Looking for more kirsch liqueur intermixed with hints of white chocolate, pepper, and underbrush? If so, the 2008 Terre de Feu will satisfy your needs. Composed of 90% Grenache and 10% Carignan, and also aged in 75% tank and 25% neutral French oak, it is a spicy, soft wine with super fruit, medium to full body, and a silky texture. It begs to be drunk over the next 1-2 years. Costieres de Nimes, an appellation centered around the ancient Roman settlement of Nimes, just south of Chateauneuf du Pape, remains one of France’s top sources for value wines. Chateau Mourgues du Gres has been producing successful wines for as long as I’ve been tasting in this region, and their current portfolio includes two strong whites, two strong roses, and a bevy of delicious reds. The 2009 Fleur d’Eglantine rose includes 30% Mourvedre and 10% Syrah, whereas the 2009 Galets Rose has 40% Syrah and much less Mourvedre. Both wines contain 50% Grenache. Both are outstanding roses that are vinified in stainless steel and bottled early to preserve their fruit and freshness.Importer: Peter Weygandt, Weygandt-Metzler, Coatesville, PA; tel.
