Rating: Robert Parker 91–92/100
“The 2009 Coteaux du Languedoc Saint-Drézéry Tête de Bélier red from Puech-Haut—Syrah, with small amounts of Grenache and Mourvèdre and a hint of Carignan, 30% of which was aged in barrels. A striking blend of cedar and rosemary, with notes of ground nutmeg and cocoa, accompanying a rich bouquet of ripe raspberry, black cherry, plum, and violet...” (The Wine Advocate August 2011 - Robert Parker)
