2017 Depeyre Côtes du Roussillon
$25
The backbone of the Syrah and Carignan ally perfectly with the opulent Grenache, giving a medium-bodied wine of intense black fruit flavors, redolent of mountain herbs. Supple tannins and juicy acidity make this a wonderful match to the brined pork loin or curry shepherd's pie.
The vineyard located in the Agly valley in the north of Roussillon is established on black schists and clay-limestone. It is swept by the gusts of the prevailing wind "La Tramontane". These complex terroirs bring power, balance and freshness giving the typicity to the wines of Domaine Depeyre.
