2008 | Calvet-Thunevin | Cotes du Roussillon Villages Hugo

A heady and rich wine right from the start, this opens with seductive notes of brambly blackberry, wild raspberry, sweet spice, licorice and toast. It's full and weighty, with a texture like crushed velvet and a deep palate that continues to provide additional layers of flavor with each sip. Sweet spice, cocoa powder and mocha flavors linger on the evolving finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: Mature aromas of dried blackberry and cured meat immediately waft from the bouquet, while secondary scents of raspberry, macerated cherry and sweet spice follow shortly behind. Medium-plus in weight, with fine yet gripping tannins that linger long on the pepper-spiced finish.
