The ‘Reserve de la Cometesse’ is a wonderful showing in 2013. This elegant red delivers pretty aromas of red berries, plum, pepper, spices, leather ashy minerals and lavender, which all come together beautifully in the glass. It expands beautifully onto the medium body, where its backed by fine, velvety tannins that trip firmly on the finish, leaving behind notes of red fruits, spices and smoke. Very appealing today, but will be even better in a few years. 80% Grenache, 25% Syrah. (Best 2016-2026) - October, 2015 (JD)
