Le Pic Calmel and Joseph Pic St Loup
Gloriously ruby red and lustrous as ever, this organic wine has a refined and complex nose, with aromas of laurel, citrus and white pepper that evolve to small red berry fruit. This is a vintage full of vivacity that has no hesitation in expressing itself incisively and fully. The mid palate offers fine tannins, with redcurrant, blueberry, and some more untamed, gamey notes, before ascending into fragrant mentholated, liquorice notes. Made from a mix of 25% Syrah, 20% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre ,20% Cinsault, 15% Carignan (40 year-old vines).
