Score 89-90/100 · Robert Parker, Aug 2008

The 2006 Perrin et Fils Vinsobres Les Cornuds has the beautiful freshness and liveliness that comes from higher elevation and cooler climate vineyards in the northern part of the southern Rhone. The wine is equal parts Syrah and Grenache, and reveals complex berry notes in the nose along with truffle, roasted herbs, incense, and spice. It is medium-bodied, pure, elegant, and very Burgundian-like. In fact, I would love to see this wine inserted in a tasting with premier cru and grand cru red Burgundies. It is that transparent and terroir-based. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802

Score 16/20 · Drink 2010-2013, Jancis Robinson MW, May 2008

Soft, warm nose with quite a lot of rather awkward chewy tannins on the finish. Low key rather than flashy. (JR)
