Black fruit, silky mouthfeel, elegant soft tannins. A bit of licorice, meat and spice. Making my lamb shanks smell divine. Going to be tasty with them too! #languedoc #wine

Fantastic. This is what we should be drinking for full bodied reds. Lots of character, not a lot of oak getting in the way.

This was really a nice surprise. Lots of fruit but there’s some nuance there too. While I wouldn’t say there’s necessarily a pronounced sense of place, it’s awfully enjoyable. Massive QPR here.

Bought at Costco for $12 or less. I'm fond of this for the black pepper that comes through from the Syrah and the overall balance.

Nice, light body GSM blend with enough fruit to hold up to the acidity. Reminds me of a Lirac I had recently.

Tastes young/green. Berry and a bit of tannin. Would be sweet, if not for acid. Probably fine with grilled meats, but a little thin and uninteresting alone.
