Château de Lancyre Coteaux du Languedoc Pic St. Loup 2001

[Thraz]

This is a red. 13.5%, $9.93 at Spec's.

A little peppery, some soft tannins (a tiny bit chewy), good length, very nice. It tastes very much like a good Cotes du Rhone. I recommend it as a nice everyday wine. The website does not have this particular cuvée, their red wines all have an additional descriptive beyond C. du L., but Lancyre's Pic St. Loup reds are all a mix of syrah and grenache. This one certainly tastes like it is too. Very good QPR.
