"A terrific offering is his 2005 Cotes du Rhone Bouquet. Much of this comes from old vine Grenache from the village of Rasteau. It shows a nice roasted herb, scorched earth, and chocolatey character, impressive ripeness, medium to full body, and a long finish. It should drink well for 5-6 years. These are all noteworthy wines and generally sell for very realistic prices, so kudos to Patrick Lesec! I can’t speak highly enough of the job that Patrick Lesec does as a negociant, putting together interesting and high quality blends of Cotes du Rhones and Chateauneuf du Papes. He seems to have a talent for finding top quality sources for old vine Grenache, and his philosophy of bringing wines up is one of minimal intervention in a reductive environment with little exposure to oxygen. That’s important, because his wines often take a few years after bottling to strut their stuff. I have been very impressed with how the wines do perform in bottle, having purchased 1998s, 2000s, and 2001s, all of which seem to come into their own at about age four or five. I also noticed that his 2005s generally showed better out of bottle than they did last year prior to bottling. "

"85% Tempranillo and 15% Syrah blend from estate vineyards in DO Ucles. This 10 year old parcel is selectively harvested to ensure the highest quality of fruit. After the malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged in American oak barrels to give complexity, structure and balanced oak and fruit aromas. Brilliant and deep red-violet in color. Lively and intense with some red hues that denote the oak aging process. Powerful, fruity nose showcasing complex aromas, with subtle touches of strawberries and raspberries, with vanilla and caramel hints. The delicate aroma of oak appears in perfect harmony with the fruit. The long and clean finish leaves a persistent sweet flavor due to the firm and ripe tannins." - Importer

Rated 90 Points in Robert Parker's the Wine Advocate by Jay Miller, this QPR blockbuster red exhibits loads of red cherry with fresh, clean fruit, notes of raspberry and black pepper. Medium bodied with balanced tannins, this is a flat out winner from Spain. A massive crowd pleaser!!

"This is an exciting project for Gary Vaynerchuk and all the Vayniacs out there as they all get the reference here. Gary put together a blend of 48% Merlot, 34% Sangiovese, 15% Syrah, and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon and really thinks he found the balance and harmony he was looking for when he came up with this project. Unburdened by over-oaking, it features cascading waves of red and dark fruit, a velvety mouthful, and a lengthy finish. We're proud to say that this amalgamation of red varietals BRINGS THE THUNDER for us... TRUST YOUR PALATE and decide whether it brings thunder for you. Also the perfect gift for any Vayniac out there, though this is far from a gimmick."
