" My favorite in the lineup (but that's splitting hairs), the 2019 Syrah La Cote Patriarche offers a gorgeous, Guigal Côte Rôtie La Turque-like bouquet of ripe black and blue fruits, smoked meats, ground pepper, and rocky minerality, and it shows more floral and violet notes with time in the glass. Deep, rich, and full-bodied on the palate, it has ripe tannins, incredible purity of fruit, and a thrilling finish." Jeb Dunnuck, Jebdunnuck.com, Jul 2022 |
