2013 Domaine de la Grange des Peres Rouge 1x75cl

JancisRobinson.com – 16.5+

40% Syrah, 40% Mourvèdre and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, matured for two years in a combination of used and new oak barrels.  Mellow shaded ruby. Sweet but lifted and interesting. Polished and racy with a very savoury finish. Far from concentrated – rather modern transparent style! Very digestible. [22/09/2016]

Anticipated maturity: 2017-2025

Slightly deeper ruby in color than the 2011, the 2013 Grange des Peres offers a terrific bouquet of black cherries, black raspberries, peppery herbs, wet rocks and hints of new saddle leather. This medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, elegant red is already hard to resist (it benefits from a decant) and will keep for a decade. [28/09/2017]
