Critics reviews
Wine Advocate89-91/100
Tasted as a tank sample, the 2014 Coteaux du Languedoc Terrasses du Larzac is a possibly outstanding blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 20% Carignan that’s aging all in demi-muids. It shows the vintage profile in its medium-bodied, streamlined profile, yet has solid depth and intensity in its black raspberry, cassis, licorice and toasted bread-like bouquet. It has enough ripe tannin and density to keep nicely through 2024.

Description
The quality of this wine is such that its name is somewhat inappropriate. The nose is layered with cassis, black fruit, cherry and garrigue notes with a pleasant violet perfume. There is a purity of fruit on the palate with layers of spice and thyme; vibrant acidity with a mineral core; grippy tannins and a savoury freshness on the finish. In short, a memorable wine.
