Domaine Le Roc des Anges, cuvee "Segna de Cor", 2004. (Cotes du Roussillon villages). From a superstar producer of Carignan , it looks like ink in the glass, and it tastes like it too. An interesting offering (sexy packaging) from my favorite Kempische Wijnhuis, but mostly too extracted for my taste. A blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Carignan and 20% Syrah, with 14.5% alcohol. Starts volatile and oaky, but then shows its stuffing in a very modern style. White pepper, caramel, tar, candied blackberries, and oak. Port-like. Lots going on here. At times overdone and confused but it is young. In the end we keeping pouring more in our glasses, (is it the alcohol?), so there's something we like about it, and for 10 euros we shouldn't quibble too much. It's not for people looking for finesse, but how often do you associate Roussillon with finesse? (Postsript: the next day it was a monolihic and volatile. Not my style.)
