Roaix

Domaine Pique-Basse

Le Chasse-Cœur Grenache Aubun

2019 vintage. Olivier Tropet's vineyards are mainly in the Roaix appellation, but he also produces a Rasteau. I don't know why this wine isn't labelled Roaix, maybe there is some Rasteau in here? Or maybe he doesn't want to use the Roaix appellation for his entry level Villages? This is a blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, and 20% Carignan blend from organically (and biodynamically, certified since 2022) farmed grapes. — 13 days ago

Domaine Pique-Basse

Roaix White Blend 2015

I can't understand why southern French whites are not more popular. This beautiful white with mango, melon, hints of ginger and white pepper is a charming, food friendly, easy to drink wine — 10 years ago

Roaix Les Perriès Côtes du Rhône Villages Red Rhone Blend 2019

Domaine du Trapadis, Les Perrières, Roaix côtes du Rhône villages 2019.
That’s how I like my côtes du Rhône ! What a wine ! A typical GSM blend although grenache tends to take the stage on the nose. Cherry, blackberry, licorice, garrigue, black pepper... there is a lot happening here. The palate is punching way above its price tag. There is good acid drive, some nice width and some matter on the sides, licorice, blackberry, pepper, a tannic wall in the rear creating a bit of drying layer over a long finish that goes on for a long while. There are blackberry, pepper, licorice notes and a tiny savoury, meaty, almost gamey note that pops in the rear. I have had worse chateauneuf du pape wines. More than once.

9.0

100% Syrah, with about 10% new oak. Ripe, evidence of new oak. A polished style. Oaky, quite a Ribera style. Creamy, oaky, vanilla. Uber appealing now, but not a little my haul style — 11 years ago
