Vin de Pays des Collines Rhodaniennes Syrah

Great value cool climate Syrah. Truly amazing that it drinks so well this young. Raspberry, black pepper, leather, purple fruit. A bit of back palate bitterness - probably leftover from Syrah reduction. Hopefully that comes around. But still a good value.

Buttered popcorn nose. Sharp berry fruit, light texture and tannins. Lingered red berry. Great with beef tenderloin

Distinctive. Fresh brine

All day, twice on Sundays. Favorite value northern Rhone, all you can ask for from inexpensive cool climate Syrah.

A good wine. Missing a certain magic for me and for the price.

Great bang for the buck. Possibly the best value Northern Rhone Syrah out there. Violets, black raspberries, blueberries, and gardenia on the nose. Blue fruit dominates palate, plus leather and baking chocolate on the finish. Amazingly soft and approachable for a 2015 Northern Rhone.

Clean red fruit, spice, moved to a bit of umani

Lovely KL syrah at a nice price point. Recommend!

Good. Love the spicy funky Rhone character, but the ghastly acidity and tangy berry just kills the flavor profile for me.

Quite gulpable.
