Clos Marie "Simon" Pic Saint Loup 2004

Dull red/purple.

Vinturi - spicy ketchup, iron, grilled/wilted herbs, grilled meat nose.

Round and loaded, seamless. Everything from the nose echoed in the mouth. No heat, huge mid-palate material. Acid (decent VA?) constriction in the finish. Cote Rotie on steroids, with little loss of clarity/fineness.


$40. 50% Syrah, 50% Grenache.
