91-92 points David Schildknecht (Wine Advocate): "A blend of Carignan and Syrah with smaller amounts of Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon, the red 2007 Le Soula -- tasted assembled from tank -- practically throws punches from the glass, with powerful rosemary, fennel, juniper berry, and distilled-strength blueberries and blackberries. Far more refined in tannins than its 2006 counterpart, but no less dynamic and startlingly refreshing (indeed, little less so than the white!) this offers deep meaty and mineral dimensions along with palate-staining bitter blue and black fruits and resinous herbs. In its assertive, brisk way, this striking wine should be fascinating to work with and worth following for at least 3-5 years. (Jun 2009)"

16.5/20 points Michael Edwards (The World of Fine Wine): "(13% ABV) Very good, even ripe color: solid, constant nose of red/black fruit, very helathy and deep. Sleeping a little on the palate but with plenty of latent, potentially rich, and durable flavors. (Issue #33; 2011)"

41% Syrah, 40% Carignan, 13% Grenache Noir, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon.
