The 2006 Nemesis (which I rated 93+ in issue #177) continues to perform beautifully. A blend of 82% Syrah, 14% Mourvedre, and the rest Grenache, the wine exhibits a dark ruby/purple color as well as a sweet blackberry, cassis, charcoal, lavender, graphite, and floral-scented bouquet, terrific fruit, a full-bodied, French-like personality, and impressive purity as well as length. Consume it over the next decade. These are very individualistic and impeccably well-made wines that deserve considerable attention. Moreover, prices are very fair given the wines' high quality.

Lovely wine...clearly made with class...smokey blue and black fruit aromas; palate is clean and fresh with no sense of heaviness, however there is great fruit concentration...on day 2 the edges were smoothly polished with hint of pepper at the end. Initially there was a little of the mouvedre funk that I love but it blew off (unfortunately).
