Domaine du Clos des Fées (Hervé Bizeul)

De battre mon coeur s'est arrêté Côtes du Roussillon Villages 2023

Opened yesterday. The nose is very syrahesque right now with blackberry, black pepper, violette, and almost a tiny touch of black truffle. The palate is fresh, broad, with a nice blackberry and pepper typical note, a very soft mouthfeel, some good grip in the rear and that tannic layer carries on over the finish. The finish is long and fruity with the same peppery and blackberry notes, but a tiny bitter note comes about in the end to lift the wine. It's fresh and lively and not really muscular like some Rhône example can be. The vineyard is planted at 600m above see level so maybe this is the reason. It's great stuff from Hervé Bizeul.
I tasted it 2 months ago with friends in a social setting and liked it a tad bit less than now.

Clairin le Rocher Pignon Rum 2018

Tied w the Sajouos for a favorite Clairin.
Perhaps a tad sweeter. Not quite as grassy as the Sajous,LLBut this is piddling.
Great, versatile stuff.

Les Fées Brunes Crozes-Hermitage Syrah

Earth and raspberry nose, with a hint of meat. Nicely balanced and medium bodied, and delightful. Smooth finish, and fine tannins. You know it's going to be a good evening when a Crozes comes up from the cellar, and this fits the bill! — 3 years ago
