Powerful, black-fruited, often aged in oak, syrah/Shiraz comes in varying styles but at the top (such as Hermitage) can be spectacular and very long-lived.

La Combe Saint Paul, L'Insoupconne, Languedoc-La Clape, 2021
Grown on clay-limestone soils in La Clape (a “heap of pepples” in the Occitan language, the old language of the Languedoc), a high rocky site near the Med south of Narbonne. 85% Syrah with Mourvèdre, given 10 months ageing in a mix of new and 2nd fill barrels - and a very limited production wine, just 2000 bottles in this vintage. As ever, very deep and opaque. Classic aromas of the hot south - black fruit with a hint of menthol. Lovely sucrosité up front,and then dark, brambly black fruit is dominant. Tannins beautifully covered. With great suavity and length, this is quite classic and combines power and finesse. Now-2027
