Mas des Cabres

Terres d'Aspères Syrah Grenache 2013

Opening 13' & 14 tonight for comparison #wine. #Sustainable #farming, and proclaimed Lutte raisoneé.

80/20
#syrah/#grenache. Surprisingly damp & earthy lacking mourvedre or carignan. Dark red, ruby on the edge. Damp earth, barnyard and cat litter (unused). All blows off to red roses, potpourri and cranberry. Palate is awesomely balanced. Earth shows up there. Slightly leathery, mild acid, not a lot of tannin. Light/medium body. Opened 4/1/17 with baked rock fish and greens.
