Vin de Pays de l'Hérault Syrah Grenache Carignan

What an elegant, almost Burgundian thing. As the Languedoc becomes increasingly hotter, this consistently checks in at 13% abv. 55% Grenache, 30% Syrah, 15% Carignan, given a long cold soak before fermentation, then polished in old Champy Volnay barrels. Fraises, framboises and an appropriate bittering element from the Carignan. Think of it as the anti-Orin Swift.

Domaine Magellan GSC 2007 - 55% Grenache, 30% Syrah & 15% Carignan. Vanilla. Dark fruit. Silky smooth finish with a lingering juicy taste you don't want to fade away! A perfect, well-balanced blend....well done! Cheers🍷

$16, light tannins, some pepper and spice, lighter cote du Rhône

Best of what we got at Moore brothers. Less bold than others we’ve had from the same region. Red fruit but not candied. Balanced. Good without food.

Dark ruby in color with black cherry, raspberry & cassis. The mouth feel is chewy yet elegant, with black and red fruit on the nose.

Aroma of red berries, licorice and some oak. Tastes of the same with nice tannins. Tasty.

When I Syrah her standing there.

Medium bodied, fruit forward. Nice, nice, nice.
