The 2005 Cairanne Partides is the most elegant and Burgundian of the group, showing notes of sweet and sour cherries, loamy soil, and some roasted herbs and spice. It is medium-bodied, crisp, and refreshing, and best drunk over the next 3-4 years. This estate, which is located in Cairanne, does its best work from the vineyards in and about that area. I tasted three cuvees of Cairanne and two cuvees of Cotes du Rhone, and all of the 2005s merit consideration. Importer: Vignobles Select, Laurel, MD; tel. (301) 362-4398

I tasted one 2004, the 2004 Cairanne Partides, a real sleeper of the vintage. Deep ruby/plum/purple with notes of licorice, earth, black cherry jam, and some mineral and smoke, the wine is deep, flavorful, broad, expansive, and a mouthful of wine that sells for a song. Drink it over the next 2-3 years. An excellent estate in Cairanne with wines from that village that are nearly as interesting and complex as their Chateauneuf du Papes, there are usually at least three cuvees of Cairanne – Galifay, Partides, and Grands Classiques – all noteworthy.

The 2003 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Cairanne Partides is a tasty, deep ruby/purple-colored wine with attractive fruit, good full-bodied texture, and a spicy blackberry finish. Importer: Vignobles Select, Laurel, MD; tel. (301) 362-4398
