Domaine de la Rousse
Côte-Rôtie Syrah
Soaring savory notes here. All kinds of meat, black olive, dirt, iron and black pepper. Deep and interesting in all sorts of ways. I love this type of wine! I made a rustic dinner of grilled rack of lamb, roasted Brussels sprouts and fingerling potatoes with a squash and curry soup. This fit the bill perfectly.
