Tasting note Michel Gassier Syrah
French full red wine. Fine and intense fragrance with ripe berry fruit and light spices. Great with spiced dishes, stewed or from the grill.
Description
Here, too, Michel manages to draw inspiration from the most famous northern Rhône wine, Côte Rôtie. As with this great example, he adds a few percent viognier to the syrah, which gives the wine a pleasant accessibility.
Also for this red wine, buds and unripe grapes are cut away. As a result, much less but more ripe grapes are harvested. After the manual picking, a classic vinification follows, followed by a nine-month maturation on casks of French oak. This is top quality syrah concentrated accessible and fresh.
In art terms you could call Michel Gassier a master forger. This talented producer of Costières de Nîmes inimitably copies the expensive ones
(35 euros +) Northern Rhône wines Côte Rôtie and Condrieu.
This makes high quality affordable. Should we condemn or praise Gassier? Come and taste for yourself!
