Loved this! Ben had this at dinner at Hotel Bories. I liked it more than he did 🙃 Super interesting nose, drinkable for a Syrah — 6 years ago
One of those natural, unique, complex and beautiful wines coming from Languedoc. Wow! — 9 years ago
A gorgeous red blend from Languedoc.
Nose bursting with black fruit ripeness, some garrigue and a fresh minty-rosemary whiff. Fresh & enticing, zero jammy notes.
The surprise comes on the palate. Beautifully polished and elegant, silky tannins and fresh acidity. All perfectly balanced & integrated. Very different from the usual chunky, rustic big reds from the South. So elegant. So smooth. Great freshness, too.

From the Wine Society: Deliciously fruity and full-bodied red from the best-known appellation in the Languedoc. The producer is Pierre Bories from in-form Ollieux-Romanis. 2015 was an outstanding vintage throughout southern France. — 7 years ago

Tres goutu et fruité, pas aussi acide que les rosé habituels, bien équilibré. Très bon. — 7 years ago
Actually not the beer indicated: this is a new one from Jolly Pumpkin called Isla Estrana. Fantastic sour saison. I'm terrible at identfying aromas in beer - and this one is tougher than most (but it smells great). Really complex with a lot of depth, but perfectly balanced through a lingering finish. And just enough tartness to keep it alive. Another home run from Ron Jeffries at JP! — 8 years ago
