Clos du Gravillas
Sous les Cailloux des Grillons Syrah Blend
Languedoc, Languedoc Roussillon, France
2017 vintage. Beautiful electric magenta hue. Meaty, gamey, earthy, plum, but balanced by generous acid. Could use just a touch more time in bottle for flavors to integrate, but outstanding wine #organic

We enjoyed this bottle late into the night, taking our time and growing our appreciation of the wine as each sip grew richer & more sumptuous. From an assortment of grapes grown on an arid and rocky, white gravel plateau in the tiny village of St Jean, France - this small batch, biodynamic beauty has alot of personality. Instantly fresh and out of the bottle with notes of red fruit, silky, smooth and growing in complexity as it breathes. By the final glass I was noticing hints of leather & blackberry jam.

A really nice wine from the Côtes du Brian area. Great fruit and acid. Earthy. Delicious with a nice thick lamb chop. Syrah, Cab, Cinsault, Carignan, Terret, Counoise, Mourvèdre, Grenache, & the kitchen sink. I’d like to try it when it’s got a couple more years in bottle. At Watershed @ The Owl
