This vintage of old Syrah vines is a real sunbath. Aromas of ripe black fruits and smoky notes dance in the glass. On the palate, there is fruitiness and a silky texture spiced with a lovely acidity. The finish is subtly mineral and flattering in length. A wonderful discovery!

About the estate:

Northwest of Lézignan-Corbières lies a vast estate (180 hectares) focused on export, acquired in 1987 by Anne-Marie and Guilhem Durand. It was the first of its kind in Languedoc-Roussillon. In 2015, it became the first in Languedoc to be acquired by a Chinese group, the importer BHC International Wine Assets Management. Close to Minervois, the vineyard is located on an ancient terrace of the Aude, rich in rounded pebbles.

Meh, meh, meh... As someone who loves Syrah, I'm frankly disappointed. It lacks power and doesn't have much complexity. A forgettable wine as it stands.
