LePlan-Vermeersch 2009 GT-S Grand Terroir Syrah (Côtes du Rhône Villages)

Country: France / GT-S Grand Terroir
Variety: Syrah Rhône Valley
Winery: LePlan-Vermeersch / Côtes du Rhône Villages

Full bodied and thickly textured, this Southern Rhône Syrah combines cedar and vanilla notes from oak aging with notes of brandied cherries and a bit of asphalt. It’s long on the finish, with a plush feel, then ends on a slightly bitter note.
