The 2005 Persia is less charming, more structured and tannic, a bigger wine, but for my own personal taste, I prefer the 2006.Fondreche is the reference point for what can be done in the Cotes du Ventoux. This is a source of sensational wines that still sell for incredibly fair prices, and virtually every one of these selections proves that you don’t have to drink luxury-priced Bordeaux, Burgundy, or Napa Cabernets to experience the multiple joys of wine. Some of these wines I reviewed out of bottle a year ago, but since I retasted them, I’ve provided new notes.Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083
