Chalky, overtly spicy, moderate tannin, a bit wonky in the finish but everything surrounding it is likeable and direct.

From one of the Languedoc-Roussillon's most exciting young négociants, Hecht & Bannier's Côtes du Roussillon Villages demonstrates excellent varietal character - a classic, rustic expression of Grenache from this corner of the Med. Flavors of almond dust, warm plums, licorice, raspberry and blanched sweet herbs expand to a rather girthy mid-palate, nuanced by a subtle minerality and animale character that informs the finish. A blend of Grenache, Syrah, Carignan, Mourvèdre, and Lledoner Pelut.

Memorial Day BBQ red wine. Went perfect with the bone in ribeye. Earthy with leather notes. With meat - it brings out the fruit. Great pairing with perfectly cooked "charred" beef.

This is a bruiser. Black fruits, black olive, black pepper, massively structured and concentrated. Tastes like a wine with something to prove. 15% ABV, imported by Frederick Wildman.
