This Block 9 Syrah is exceptional and above all different. It combines a meaty touch, terroir, minerals, spice, fruit and wood maturation at its best. Mineral notes of flint, black currants, black pepper, violets, leather and toast. Matured for 12 months in new French 225 litre casks, we recommend to decant. Full bodied, we kept the Sayang style of elegance and fine tannins allowing the wine to mature for many years. Indulge this wine with game, red meat and stews, or simply with a set of charcoal grilled Premium beef. Serve at 18° C. What you would like to know more: This is a French, Languedoc Roussillon, AOP Minervois La Livinière Syrah dominated wine from a clear and brown schistoux terroir, 100% oaked in new French barriques 225 liter. What people note down during tasting: Very deep garnet-red colour with hints of purple. Very complex and gentle nose with mineral notes of flint, black currants, black pepper, violets, leather, toast and a slight hint of vanilla. Fresh, rich and gentle attack on the palate, full yet elegant bodied, silky tannins. Unctuous, amazingly broad and deep at the same time with a long finish. What winemakers did: Traditional maceration with delestage and a full immersion of the cap before the end of the maceration. Time of maceration: 4 weeks. Clearing and racking before malolactic fermentation. Ageing in French new oak barrels (225 L) for 12 months at least.
