A Selection Committee favorite rated 95/100, the 2020 Red Terrasses du Larzac is a phenomenal wine that combines both energy and finesse. The palate is silky and smooth, representing all the beauty of a Syrah-dominant red wine with fresh, high-class perfumes and smoky accents. The finish is slightly graphite and peppery, making it the perfect bottle to pair with roasted and caramelized pork belly dishes. |
|
| | |
|
Hand harvested, each grape variety is vinified separately, aged for 18 months in truncated wooden vats for the Syrah, in oval tuns for the Carignan and Grenache and in egg-shaped concrete vats for the Cinsault.
Certified organic wine. |
