This is Syrah from very old vines grown in l'Hérault. The wine is fermented in small stailess steel tanks then transfered to first and second use oak barrels for 6 months, giving the nose an attractive lift of fresh vanilla pod. This is a robust and powerful yet finely balanced wine. Very dark purple in the glass, it has profound aromatics of ripe blackberries with mineral and spice notes and appealing sweet oak. Full-bodied, finely integrated tannins with a long, fresh, juicy finish. It's a great wine for roast meats, especially beef.
