Secret de Schistes IGP Cotes Catalanes - 2020 (750ml) Size:750ml Nose: Wonderfully pervasive notes ofA big, meaty, mineral laced Syrah, the dense purple hued 2020 Cotes Catalanes Secret De Schistes offers up a great nose of blackberries, roasted herbs, chocolate, and graphite that develops more meaty and leather notes with time in the glass. Full bodied, concentrated, and rich, it hits the palate with a soft, supple, seamless mouthfeel, impressive tannins, and a great finish. Jeb Dunnuck 94 points, 5 24 2022
