2001 $17.99 very limited
"The spectacular 2001 Cotes du Ventoux Cuvee Nadal is a blend of 50% old Grenache (aged in tank) and 50% Syrah (aged in barrel). There are 20,000 bottles of this fleshy effort revealing pure blackberry fruitiness, well-concealed alcohol (16% for the Grenache and 15% for the Syrah), a luscious, layered texture, and a blockbuster finish with great purity as well as intensity. It will provide thrilling drinking over the next 5-6 years. At $17 a bottle, it is hard to believe there are many better wines in the world than this.

"Although slightly tart, with higher acidity than normal, the 2002 Cotes du Ventoux Cuvee Fayard (60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and 10% Carignan) possesses good fruit as well as medium body.
