Château Lancyre - Grande Cuvée | Pic Saint Loup
Red wine | France, LANGUEDOC | 2020
This wine has an intense, garnet red color.
The first nose is dominated by woody notes and mocha that quickly give way to aromas of berries (blueberry and pomegranate) and licorice.
On the palate this is a concentrated wine, with rich, elegant tannins, a nice freshness and a long finish.

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.
