Cypress Cuvée
Côtes du Rhône 2009
$13
wine is made by Louis Barruol (Château de St.-Cosme) and importer Kermit Lynch
80% Syrah, 20% Grenache
online notes from musings on the vine:
youthful, earthy nose with fresh cherry, strawberry and truffle hints. medium-to-full-bodied with moderate acidity and firm, dry tannin. good balance. lush palate with blackberry, cacao and gamey notes: classic côtes du rhône. long finish with spice and dried fruit notes, like a vino ripasso.
online notes from ipowines:
dark, juicy and mouthfilling. gutsy but nicely defined blackberry, raspberry and fig paste notes, backed by dark tobacco and briar on the finish.
