Les Dimanches Corbières Syrah Blend

Deep purple. Intense nose of kirsch, bitter almond and pastry. Could be cherry pie in a glass. With that said, there is no fat or excess sweetness here. Driven, fresh and elegant tannins at 5 years old. Just delicious.

I’m betting not many acid freaks look to Corbieres, but the few that do look here. Savory, minerally nose has some spicy dark berries but mostly pulverized rocks. Lean but mouthfilling, with beautifully pure ripe dark berries, very crisp acids, and loads of minerality. This would be outrageous with a winter lamb stew.

Full body rich with dark fruit. Med tannin , med acidity. A bit high alcohol for me.
