We selected a total of 13 older barrels for this, our "Cuvee Unique"—this is a wine that bowls you over with its abundant aromatics, its complexity and freshness on the palate and its staying power. A pure, rich ruby in the glass, the wine's aromas suggest incense and warm sandalwood, with notes of espresso and a hint of grilled apricot. Textured and silky, flavors deliver savory black fruits, pepper and soy sauce. A blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 6% Mourvèdre and 4% Cinsault aged in Mont-Olivet's traditional casks and foudre.

Clos du Mont-Olivet Côtes du Rhône Serre de Catin 2009
France
/
Rhône Valley
This gorgeously opulent wine has to be one of the more seductive of the vintage. "This is a beauty, with loads of framboise, kirsch, lavender, and licorice. It is medium-bodied, has unbelievable character and personality already, and because of its precociousness and emerging complexity, will be best drunk over the next 3-4 years."—The Wine Advocate

Clos du Mont-Olivet Côtes du Rhône Varene 2009
France
/
Rhône Valley
Another beautiful Côtes du Rhône and a steal of a deal for its very high quality. Peppery cherry notes mix with plums and bitter chocolate on the nose. A mouthful of ripe, concentrated black fruits, lined with licorice and mocca notes, is gorgeously saturated and very delicious. A blend of 60% Syrah and 40% Grenache; aged in demi-muid and foudre.
