TASTING NOTE: Coming from the les Aspres region located to the south of Perpignan, the 2015 Côtes du Roussillon les Aspres Grand Terroir les Aspres is a blend of Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah aged one-third in barrel. It offers slightly more purity and freshness than the Tautavel release and gives up impressive notes of black raspberries, cassis, toasted spice and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, fresh, elegant and silky, it's impeccably balanced and is immensely drinkable. It should keep for at least 4-6 years. Drink date: 2017-2023.
