(2022) This Languedoc blend is only the second vintage of the cuvée, which is 40% Syrah, 40% Mourvèdre and 20% Grenache, partly barrel-matured. There's a depth and suggestion of sumptuous richness on the nose. Glossy, but also meaty and deep, there's some cedar over dark berry fruit, a wisp of violet lift too. In the mouth it is a beautifully-pitched wine, flooded with ripe and succulent berries, but a firm, slightly gravelly and spicy background adds savoury grip. There's real juiciness here, a little salty note to the acidity and fine but firm tannins give a long finish. Imported by Daniel Lambert Wines. Price and stockist quoted at time of review are for the 2019 vintage.
