Domaine Gassier Fleur de Syrah, 2020

Exuding an abundance of wild blackberries with a subtle smoky touch, this lively Cote-du-Rhone boasts a vivid expression, underscored by refreshing mineral notes and a brusquely balanced alcohol profile. Crafted from organically grown grapes, it culminates in a lively finish, receiving a notable 92 points from Jeb Dunnuck. Transitioning to the 2020 Costières De Nîmes Fleur De Syrah, it presents cherry and blue fruits intertwined with hints of gamey, peppery, and violet-like Northern Rhône nuances. This medium-bodied gem offers a balanced palate, serving as an ideal introduction to the essence of quality Syrah from the Rhône Valley. Blending 95% Syrah and 5% Mourvèdre, partially destemmed, and aged in concrete tanks, it garners 90 points from James Suckling.
