Domaine de Ciffre, Val Taurou 2001
Vin de Pay des Côteaux de Murviel
A tour de force with 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Syrah. The deepest wine so far. This is also barrique-aged with a mix of new and old oak barrels. The nose is has hints of cedar, mint, blackcurrants and cloves. It is bursting with concentrated cassis and raspberry fruit flavours. The tannins again are very ripe and soft, and the finish is long. Another wine to enjoy now but with the potential to age for another five years.
