Very pure and clear here - quite upfront and fruit driven but you can't doubt the quality. Ripe black fruit with bacon - Northern Rhone slapped over a Southern Rhone frame. £10....say that again....ten...quid. Bargain. Better than a lot (or most) of the Cotes du Rhone at the same price. A repeat purchase for me - a bit of a crowd pleaser with a touch of quality about it.

Dark and dense deep red color. Unclear edge, seems to be some fine grained sediment here. Nose is filled with leather and forest fruits. Crowberries, moss, forest floor. A simple and straight forward syrah. The palate is powerful, juicy, sweet but with a bitter aftertaste. Developes some liquorice notes after a while in the glass. Very good!
