Pays D’Oc, Southern France is renowned for excellent value, cheerful wines for everyday drinking and this Reserve de Marande Syrah, fits the bill perfectly. Oozing with abundant Syrah aromas and flavours with intense fruit, combined with the structure inherent to France, chewy and robust tannins. The warmer, Mediterranean climate produces perfectly ripened fruit that exude varietal characters. The perfect wine to sit back, relax, share with friends and not think too deeply, rather enjoy and relish the tranquillity.

a dark, berry compote of aromas rise from the glass, deep and brooding, underpinned by crushed thyme, black liquorice and brown spices.

a wonderfully, deeply coloured wine, combining red and dark berry fruit flavours, violets, lavender with hints of vanilla and toast. A deep core of fruit runs throughout with rustic, tannins that would benefit from a little air. Decant just prior to serving. Having said that, I love the vibrancy, energy and power in this wine. Great drinking now after decanting or cellar for 3-4 years. Perfect with all BBQed or roasted red meats.
