More concentrated than a typical vintage, the 2003 Crozes-Hermitage Les Launes offers loads of raspberry and cherry fruit as well as glycerin, heady alcohol, and a sweet, plump personality. It will drink well for 3-4 years. It would be a tasty introduction to Crozes-Hermitage on a restaurant wine list. Importer: Maison Marques et Domaines, Oakland, CA; tel. (510) 587-2000
