2009 Pic Saint Loup, Vieilles Vignes, Chateau de Lancyre

Pic Saint Loup, Vieilles Vignes, Chateau de Lancyre
Lancyre’s Vieilles Vignes Cuvée is a blend of 65% Syrah and 35% Grenache, the age of the vines in question bring over 30 years, so certainly middle-aged if not actually old! After a chewy and quite tannic 2007, the 2008 is more refined and harmonious, its old vine pedigree evidenced all the way though to the finish.

The wine is concentrated and sweet, with notes of thyme and bay complementing the abundance of fruit, which is dominated by plums and cherries. There is a smoky back-drop and firm, refreshing acidity. An impressive effort which will go extremely well with braised hare, partridge or wild boar, as well as a panoply of less ambitious dishes….!
