Domaine Clavel
Copa Santa Coteaux du Languedoc Syrah Blend
Coteaux du Languedoc La Méjanelle, Languedoc, Languedoc Roussillon, France
My impressions are very similar to my April 2025 bottle of this @Dave wine, mostly old vine Syrah from Pierre Clavel’s “La Mejanelle” vineyard, with small dollops of Mourvèdre and Grenache, low levels of Brett show (so, if you’re very sensitive to Brett, YMMV), solid finish, very good Languedoc!!

Jan 10th, 2026[Mostly old vine Syrah, with small dollops of Mourvèdre and Grenache, 12-14 months in barrel, not sure if new or used]
Pristine quality cork, garrigue, low-level Brett, smoky, well-balanced, still very crisp and youthful, longish finish, punches well above its weight!!

[Syrah, with a little Mourvèdre and Grenache] Restrained, but still evident, oak still shows up front, lavender, garrigue, wild flowers, while mature, drinking very well, medium-long finish, quite good still!!
