Chateau Maris Les Planels Syrah / 750mL

asting Notes: "Thyme, rosemary, some menthol notes, a touch of lavender, this aromatic bouquet propels you into the heart of the vine. In the mouth, this sunny wine communicates over the full length of the tongue: a bouquet of already complex aromas with some notes of sauteed black cherries, blackcurrant, licorice, pepper and cold meats. Dark purple color. Rich, full-bodied, yet elegant and seamless, with an impressive texture. An integrated acidity and a beautiful elegance, making you come back to the glass. Aging potential: 7-10 years. Grape Varieties: Syrah & Grenache (15% max)" Jeb Dunnuck 94 "The 2020 Minervois La Liviniere Les Planels comes from more hillside parcels in the Minervois and it's 80% Syrah and 20% Grenache. It's crazy good stuff, with lots of black raspberry fruits, some floral, spicy, incense notes, full-bodied richness, and ripe, silky tannins. Aged all in used barrels, it's well worth seeking out, and there's relatively good production as well, so it should be easier to find in the market."
