A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: This is crafted from Syrah, Grenache and Carignan sourced from south-facing vines planted in schistose soils. Big, broad shoulders of ripe dark fruit carry additional notes of meat and leather. Rich, long and layered, with a hint of rusticity on the finish. If you like rabbit, try a rabbit stew with this. If rabbit is not your thing, then fire up the barbecue and grill a steak, or try it with lamb-and-rosemary koftas. (Vintages panel, June 2017) |
