What Banyuls wants to be when it isn't sweet. Grenache, Syrah, Carignan, and Mourvèdre in old oak casks.

A touch too much new oak for my palate, but all in all really good. Rich ripe res fruit ( not over ripe), smk/campfire, pink peppercorn, M+ length

Roussillon trip #6
Intermediate Cuvée. Typical blend of the appellation with the Grenache forward, then Syrah, Mourvèdre etc. The dress is dark typical of southern wines. The nose makes black fruit primary notes and roasted aging coexist in a classic way. The final is promising but the alcohol and acidity of the attack and the body are still a little prominent. To taste in a few years.

Le nez fait cohabiter de manière classique notes primaires fruits noirs et élevage torréfié. La finale est prometteuse mais l’alcool et l’acidité de l’attaque et du corps sont encore un peu proéminents. A regoûter dans quelques années.

Dr. Pepper, cloves. Much more approachable on day two. A nice, rustic, hearty cold weather wine.
