Le Montmain Cote-Rotie Syrah
Côte-Rôtie, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
You can tell they really get close to the full 20% Viognier allowed to blend this in these wines. The bright cherry and faint peach flavors and a color shade thicker than blood. Not very oaky, new wine to definitely throw into the vast memory bank under "new". Rich raspberry, not very floral, medium + weight, medium acid, medium minus tannin.

Well-made. Polished. Rich but still retains a nice lightness. Good structure. Not super expressive needs a few more years age.

Not that it's a huge sample size, but this is the best Syrah I've had.
