A beautiful Syrah from Condrieu. Perfumed nose of red flowers, licorice, black pepper and sage. Light in weight, with black fruit and savory umami accented with juicy acidity and excellent tannic balance.

Light, highly perfumed Syrah. Very feminine. Dig it!

Pretty significant reduction which is starting to get better, but relatively lithe and fresh on the palate. I dig it. Collines Rhodanniennes.
