2007 Domaine de Coudoulet, Syrah Vin De Pays D'Oc

"Syrah is one of the reasons for the success of Minervois la Livinière in general and for the success of Pierre André Ournac as a vigneron in particular. No surprises then , that his Vin De Pays Syrah is an outstanding exemplar. Farmed on the slopes of the Montagne Noir and vinified without oak, this is a juicy and richly satisfying Syrah. Blackberry, spice, a little pepper and then a refreshing palate where the tannins are gentle but present where the finish is long but clean. Exceptional value." (Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer)
