Château Lancyre - Grande Cuvée Rouge | Pic Saint Loup
Red wine | France, LANGUEDOC | 2019
A nice expressive nose, with aromas of leather and
garrigue. A sappy, fresh and dense mouth. Fresh pepper and menthol, a
very nice length on the ripe fruits. An elegant and very distinctive wine.
The palate is dense, fresh, the tannins very silky. The aging potential is
remarkable.

About Ch. de Lancyre
The Château de Lancyre vineyards are located in the south of France on an exceptional terroir of the Languedoc, the prestigious Pic Saint Loup appellation.
At the foot of the Pic St Loup, between the Cevennes and the Mont Ventoux, lies the Château de Lancyre. The castle was built in the sixteenth century on the ruins of a 12th century fortress. The castle and the 37 hectares of vineyards were bought by the Durand family in 1970. Renovation started immediately, and Syrah and Grenache vines were planted. Today, this domain consists of 128 hectares of AOC vineyards.
