Natalie's Score: 91/100

A robust and delicious red with aromas of black licorice (it's dry), blackberries, black cherry and smoke. Lovely length and weight. Polished, smooth tannins make it easy to drink now though it'll also keep well in the cellar. This wine was mature for six months in French barrels, with most of it resting on its lees. Terrific price. Gassier is the iconic flagship of the Nimes region, and this wine shows why.

Food pairings: hearty meat dishes, prime rib.

Terrific wine, loaded with black briars, melted licorice, plums, tar, and a hint of garrigue. This producer continues to come up big under $25. 92 Points. (ottawawinejournal.com)
