Ermitage du Pic Saint Loup

Tour de Pierres Coteaux du Languedoc Pic St. Loup Grenache Blend 2021

I hadn't had this wine in a couple of vintages and I always have had a sweet spot for it. It's a bit more austere and serious than previous vintages I tasted, and a bit more complex too.
Licorice, blackberry, leather, a touch of mint, some Cola notes and some heat... Wow it's a serious nose, a lot let's playful and fruitful than in my memories. The palate shows a great acid drive, some serious grip, some width, some matter on the edges, a nice blackberry note through and through, along with, again, these Cola notes that I usually associate with natural gamays from the Beaujolais region, some grippy tannins kick off in the rear, powering a long, fruity, grippy finish that lasts for a very long time. These tannins tend to make the wine a bit more austere and complex but the Cola notes remind you it's an organic, natural wine style too. I like it very much. And this is the entry level cuvée of this Domaine!

Simon Coteaux du Languedoc Pic St. Loup 2013

Pic Saint Lupe continues to demonstrate some of the best table wines. Far more approachable than Bandols. Dark rich fruits and earthy aromas with hints of garrigue and leather. — 5 years ago

Exceptional. Lots of structure, tannins, red fruit. The Mourvèdre really comes through. One of the best pic saint loup. This region has really so much to offer now. — 3 years ago
