Domaine de Babio Minervois "Cuvee Syrius" 2013

Languedoc-Roussillon, Southern France. 90% Syrah, 10% Carignane. If you, like most, are expecting rusticity in your Minervois, this is as-expected. Port-like nose of sun-ripened black & blueberries, French roast coffee, dry aged beef, crushed rocks, bitters, oil cured black olives. "Let's spit-roast a goat and drink this with it," says DD.
