Domaine Habrard (Laurent Habrard)
"Sainte Epine" St. Joseph Syrah



Just a stunner. He got so pricey. Sad! Stunning nose. Lavender fields of blackberries. Violets. Amazing purity, delicacy and precision to the nose. Palate is unreal. Super pure. Super sappy and wonderfully sappy and elegant. Amazing density and yet so light on its feet. Needs some air to really gain in complexity. Wonderful opulence in the mid and such refinement. Juicy and lovely granite minerality on the finish. This is very classy but also a bit young. I’ll come back to this with air.
