Note di degustazione
Leading off the 2013s, the 2013 Languedoc Pic Saint Loup Grande Cuvee is a knockout effort that’s made from 60% Syrah, 35% Mourvèdre and the balance Grenache. Aged 12 months in one, two and three-year-old barrels, followed by six months in tank, it has uncommon concentrated depth, as well as medium to full-bodied richness, to go with classic Syrah raspberry and black raspberry fruit, garrigue and toasted spice. Given its overall balance, and level of ripe tannin, it can be enjoyed today, or cellared for a decade.

A big step up, the inky colored 2013 Pic Saint Loup Grande Cuvee is a smoking effort. Medium to full-bodied, ripe, supple and sexy, it’s loaded with notions of black raspberry, blackberry, crushed rock, smoked meats and licorice. Like a lot of 2013, it leans more towards the fresh, focused and elegant side of the spectrum, yet still has solid depth and richness.
