    Château de Sannes 1603 (Red) 2022 - RecommendedTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim

    Mid depth red to semi-translucent ruby. Lots of zippy, juicy blue mineral fruit and a lot of garrigue on the nose. Shows that subtle hint of leafy peppery Syrah that is so much more typical of Provence Syrah than Rhone. Very carbonic maceration in style with pretty high acidity and supple chalky tannins. Easy-drinking, youthful, fun, fresh, juicy and zippy. A remarkably fun, bistro style red that offers good value for Provence.
