Mas Gabriel - Clos des Lièvres 2017

Cité

Hachette

(2016 vintage notes)

This blend of 70% Syrah and 30% Grenache reveals a complex and harmonious nose exuding lavender, garrigue, blackcurrant, and a hint of black pepper. The palate is impressively rich, full-bodied and round, delivering concentrated aromas of jammy black and red fruits and a bouquet of garrigue notes. A concentrated taste of the Languedoc!
