This Syrah is taken from old vineyards tucked above the historic village of La Caunette. Limestone caves and subsoils dominant this unique area and the minerality definitely comes through from these calcareous soils. The wine is deeply coloured and super peppery, with almost floral overtones and a flinty complexity. The palate is full bodied, with fine grained tannins, peppery black fruit, good acidity and a long chalky finish. Cellar 4-12 years. 95 points
