2023 Collines Rhodaniennes Syrah
Domaine Monier Perréol
This Syrah tastes like Syrah, pure and raw, boldly aromatic with nothing to hide. Forget the idea of Syrah always being big and fruity; this one is spice- and mineral-driven, speckled with black pepper and dark hunks of dusty granite. It is nearly all terroir with a touch of tart blackberry to fill in the spaces, and I can tell it’s unfiltered thanks to the way it fills the mouth and demands to be bitten into. Serve it a couple degrees cooler than a typical red and see what this northern Rhône Syrah is all about.
