Clear red colour. Dark berries, touch of herbs and garrigue. Elegant on the palate, with warm notes from hot, sunny syrah - Australian heritage ?? - Aftertaste dominated by warm, burnt berries and oak. Had expected something more complex. I think balance is hurt by the syrah from the hot lowlands and too much oak but still an interesting wine. For Syrah-Australian lovers this is an eye opener to what Minervois has to offer.
