Quite soft and plush. Plum fruit, violets. Medium bodied and quite refined.

Reticent on the nose after a short decant this led deep cassis and smokey, shroomey and gamey meat. Grenache-driven cherry. So pure. Would love to see this in 5-10 years.

Very Pegau in style. Lots of garrigue and dried plum. I would prefer to drink this a few years ago or let sit for another 5+ years to fully develop the complement of terschiary flavors and aromas. This will last... high acid for sure

Difficult to evaluate due to a disappointing amount of Brett. Blend of 85% Grenache, 9% Syrah, and 4% Mourvedre, Counoise and other varieties all whole cluster fermented. Named after Laurence Feraud who runs the property along with her father Paul. 14.5% ABV.

Dark reddish tawny, almost opaque. Nose gives you a wake up. Notes of kirsch, black fruit, pencil lead, pepper and some plum. Rich in the mouth. The wine expands. Gives a little heat. Tart finish. Maybe it gets better with some more age but certainly creates a conversation today.

Holy crap that's good. In a related note I think I missed my calling as a wine writer

Cuvée Laurence is consistently one of the most compelling wines from the region, and it certainly lives up to that reputation in 2012.
