The 2022 Tavel Les Lauzeraies is another attractive Tavel from the local cave cooperative. A bit stonier and garrigue-scented than many of the other cuvées, it's medium to full-bodied, fully dry and almost savory in style, with the merest hints of red berries and citrus on the finish.
90 Wine Spectator
A well-crafted version, with a bitter, pithy streak of acidity cutting through the richness. Reveals red licorice, cherry and plum flavors that are fleshy and broad, with subtle fine-grained tannins providing a ballast. The warm finish is adorned with dried flower petal and shaved iron details. Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2025. 4,000 cases made, 1,250 cases imported.
