Montirius Côtes du Rhône 2007

Montirius
hits the stony, mineral side of Rhône wines. It is tight and focused,
delicious and very much alive. Increasingly I find myself saying
“focused” and “lively” about wines that impress me. This
one impresses me. I won’t recite a recipe list of ingredients you
may or may not taste. But I will tell you that this biodynamic producer
uses no oak – these wines, and there are fine Gigondas and Vacqueyras
as well, are all from the vineyard, not the forest.

Montirius is imported by Vintage ‘59 Imports LLC of Washington,
DC. The wines are apparently marketed under different labels in France.
