TOB exclusive import: Haut-lirou les Costes Pic Saint loup 2018 Shiraz Grenache

Haut-Lirou "Les Costes" from Pic Saint-Loup 2018. 80% Shiraz, 20% Grenache.
Deep licorice and cola, precise cassis fruit, smoke, plum jam, dates, and Moroccan leather, while the palate is full with very fine and firm tannin and good length. An elegant contrast to the Maître. Pic Saint-Loup is further inland but much higher in altitude than the coastal vineyards of Mas du Notaire and this gives a completely different and more chiselled and mineral taste to the wines from here.
