Château Mire l'Etang, Cuvée des Bois de l'Etang, La Clape, Languedoc-Roussillon, France 2021

From the Massif de la Clape comes this fresh, unoaked blend of 40% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 20% Cinsault. Intense and peppery, it has a good depth of succulent garrigue- and balsam-infused black and blue fruits, with chocolate and spice undertones leading to a long, bright finish. Yum!
