Côte Du Roussillon Lesquerde R.I (0.75 L)

Practically 100% Syrah grown on decomposed granite, the 2017 Cotes du Roussillon Villages Lesquerde Rectificando Invenies features hints of pencil shavings, licorice and plum on the nose. Full-bodied, structured and firm, this is impressive more than generous, but it’s not overly hard and ends up being more giving on the long, lingering finish.
