Hugo Vercasson - Les Travers 2022
Captivateing deep rich bouquet of ripe blackberries, blueberries, and earthy notes reminiscent of wet stones. Subtle hints of cracked black pepper and a delicate smokiness add complexity. On the palate, it reveals juicy blackberry flavours intertwined with savoury minerals, reflecting the rugged terroir. Velvety texture and fine-grained tannins provide structure, while a lingering finish echoes dark berries and a touch of smoke, embodying this epic Syrah worth cellaring.
