Tasting notes
The 2003 Perrin Cotes du Rhone-Villages Vinsobres Les Cornuds is one of those wines where the tannins look to have the upper hand. This is a relatively tough-textured, but well-endowed wine, but the astringency and dryness in the finish are cause for concern. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802

From their 100 acres of Vinsobres vineyards, the Perrins have produced a 2003 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Vinsobres composed of equal parts Syrah and Grenache. It exhibits clean, rich, mineral-infused raspberry and cherry fruit, fine acidity, a distinctive earthiness, and a spicy, heady finish. Importers: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel.
