The top wine of the estate, and easily in the top handful of wines in the vintage, the 2014 Cotes Catalanes Boreal will put many a top Cote Rotie to shame. Made from 100% Syrah grown on decomposed granite soils, this beauty offers an ethereal bouquet of black raspberry, olive tapenade, lavender and violets, with just a kiss of bacon fat coming through with time in the glass. Ripe, full-bodied, layered and balanced, with ripe tannin and good acidity, it can be enjoyed today with a decant, but will keep for over a decade.
