Score 90/100 · Drink 2006-2016, Robert Parker, Feb 2006
Chapoutier is working in the Cotes du Roussillon with a project known as Bila Haut. The single vineyard offering, the 2003 Bila Haut Occultum Lapiderm is a seriously-endowed, dark ruby/purple-colored wine exhibiting big notes of melted licorice, smoked herbs, creme de cassis, black cherries, and smoke. Full-bodied, powerful, rich, and impressively pure as well as long, it should drink well for a decade. Importer: H. B. Wine Merchants, New York, NY; tel. (917) 402-0456
