Note di degustazione
A distinctive, effusive wine that really shows off the grape variety with its peppery, smoky aromas and rich, saturated black and blue fruit flavors. Full-bodied, dense, so fruity but also so savory, offering black pepper, blackberry, grilled plum and singed rosemary flavors. While quite full-bodied and laced with fine-grained tannins, it remains velvety and pure. Drinkable now, but best from 2030.

I always love the Syrah from this team, and the 2021 Syrah is no exception, possessing a majestic, opulent, singular style in its black and blue fruits as well as exotic floral, pepper, candied orange, and subtle game nuances. This beauty is full-bodied, ripe, and sexy, but holds onto a remarkable sense of purity and freshness. It reminds me of Guigal's C te R tie La Mouline and will have 15 years or more of overall longevity.
The 2021 Syrah is all class. Dark fruit, leather, sweet spice and tobacco struggle to emerge. The oak is a bit prominent at this stage, but aging should take care of that. There's terrific purity of fruit here, but the Syrah needs time to come into its own.
