Ariane Grenache Syrah 2021

Lyle Fass
9.3

9.3 for now, with upside. Beautiful, classical Southern Rhône aromatics of white pepper, lavender, cassis, herbs de Provence and lots of floral lift. The palate is juicy, crunchy and very pure, with that lovely Grenache airiness and just enough Syrah depth through the middle. The tannins are especially fine, silky and elegant, with terrific stoniness and a clear galet character underneath the fruit. Really well made, fresh and balanced, with just a faint flicker of heat on the finish. Not as strong as the bottles I tasted this summer, but still an excellent showing and clearly capable of more with air. — 14 hours ago

Didn’t see this. Thanks man. Putting one’s name on the front of a bottle is way harder than the back of the. bottle

I definitely agree with my purveyor. See Lyle Fass’ notes.
Granite flowers and animal funk/leather on the nose. A wine you could huff all evening.
The palate rewards with opulence, but never treacly, red/black fruits, granite, gentle tugging at your cheeks. I think it’s ready to go but some yrs. wouldn’t hurt. It lingers on your lips lonnnggg.
Deliciousness, craft, terroir.
Thanks @FassSelections.
