"The 2011 Syrousse is composed of 70% Syrah, 20% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre. Revealing lots of blackberry, cassis, camphor and licorice characteristics as well as a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel and a long finish, it should drink well for another 2-3 years.

These wines stood out as impressive examples from a cooperative in the Cotes du Roussillon, Les Vignerons de Tautavel Vingrau."

Tasting Notes:
"Full-bodied, with spicy blackberry and dark fruit aromas on the nose, and soft, plush tannins on the palate." - Importer Winery:
"Produced at the Les Vignerons de Tautavel Vingrau (VTV) cooperative in the village of Tautavel, Syrousse is a great expression of ripe, Roussillon, Syrah. Inspired by Tautavel’s 450,000 year pre-historic past and wealth of old-vines and schistous soils, this approachable, terroir-driven wine is sure to please." - Importer
