2019 Grand Ciel Syrah

The 2019 Grand Ciel Syrah opens with aromas of grilled meat, violets, and dried Herbs de Provence.  Dark plum and blackberry mingle beautifully with the savory components of this wine.  A small amount of stem inclusion provides lift and texture, while the subtle oak influence supports the rich mouthfeel.  The decision to bottle the wine without any fining is validated by graceful tannins that lead to a generous finish.  You can expect to cellar this for at least 12+ years, but this classic delivers much pleasure on its release as well.
