Chateau Saint Cyrgues Saint Cirice Syrah Grenache 2020

Languedoc France

This Syrah/Grenache blend has fairly traditional Rhone connotations, similar to a Cotes du Rhone. The flavour is faintly liquorice, superbly clean and even. We follow this producer with great enthusiasm. The wines deliver welcome individuality and mellowness (also check out the Saint Cirice White Grenache here

Costières de Nîmes is an appellation in transition. It received full AC status in 1986 and although notionally in the eastern part of the Languedoc, it shares the same topography, soil and climate as the southern Rhône (alluvial terroir of galet stones and sandstone). Château Saint-Cyrgues is producing quality wines across the board. In the vineyard, natural remedies and organic principles are adopted and work is done by hand.
