From the Côtes du Roussillon-Villages district near where the Pyrenees mountains greet the Mediterranean Sea, the 2010 Chimères from Saint-Roch fills the mouth with its rounded texture. It is multilayered, showing succulent cherry and raspberry fruit infused with savoury notes of thyme, lavender, mineral and creosote, and it is well-structured, with a spine of fine-grained tannins. It should improve with up to five years' rest. $17.85 in B.C.
