Southern French reds like this usually get drunk within a few years of the harvest, so a 2006 from Roussillon with nearly two decades in bottle is a rare chance to see what time does to one. Les Sorcières means "the witches," and it's the domaine's take on the classic Roussillon trio of grapes. The Grenache and Carignan come from old vines, 40 to 80 years old, and the Syrah from younger plantings. The vineyards sit mostly on limestone-clay soils, and the grapes are picked by hand. The domaine times the harvest to get ripe fruit without losing acidity, which is the right priority in a hot region and is what gives a red any shot at aging well. Pour this one for curiosity and conversation rather than for a fixed idea of what Roussillon should taste like.

"The 2005 Cotes du Roussillon Les Sorcieres – from equal measures Carignan and Grenache plus 10% Syrah, all grown in Vingrau and Tautavel, and matured in tank and large oaken ovals – exudes fetching aromas of cherry preserves, buddleia-like floral perfume, and talcum powder. This wine’s sweetness of fruit is balanced by an almost tactile mineral sense of wet stone and graphite. The satisfyingly rich finish is very slightly touched by heat. Enjoy it over the next two years." —David Schildknecht

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Slow-roasted leg of lamb with garlic and rosemary; duck confit with lentils; cassoulet; braised beef cheeks; aged Comté or Tomme des Pyrénées.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Roussillon blend profile: dark cherry and blackberry from the Grenache and Carignan, with Syrah adding black pepper and a hint of wild herbs. These reds are typically full-bodied and warm, with firm but rounded tannins and fresh acidity holding them together. With bottle age, the style tends toward dried fruit, leather and earthy, savoury notes on a long finish.
