Château les Vignals 100% Syrah 2024
A fresh, accessible Syrah - less Rhône-like density, more brightness and immediacy.
The nose opens on ripe dark berries - blackberry, blackcurrant - with a fresh edge of violet and cracked black pepper, typical of Syrah in a cooler southwestern expression. There’s also a subtle herbal lift (garrigue, olive tapenade) that keeps it lively rather than heavy.
On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and supple, with juicy black fruit at its core. The tannins are present but relatively soft and approachable, supporting the fruit without dominating. A gentle spice - pepper, clove - and a faint smoky note add complexity.
