Deep cherry red color. Nose is ripe fruit, rich and spicy. Palate of red fruit (blackcurrant and blackberry), spice with a fresh finish.
The 2004 La Vieille Ferme Cotes du Ventoux, which has mostly Grenache with a bit of Syrah and no doubt some Carignan, etc., and Mourvedre, shows good freshness, straightforward berry fruit, medium body, and good purity and intensity. It is a surprisingly good effort with more substance than I would have guessed. Drink it over the next two years. —Robert Parker,
