Pour Le Vin Faim de Loup Syrah 2022
FrancePour Le Vin Faim de Loup Syrah is a delicious red from France's IGP Pays d'Oc region. Syrah can be a big wine in the northern Rhone, but this red made from 40-year-old vines is juicy, slippery, fruity, and peppery all in one, and it slips down easily. Could this be the best-value syrah under $20 sold in British Columbia? I would be happy to taste any wines that come close to it, but my guess is there are very few, if any, to be had. Boutinot, France, produces the wine, and the grapes are sourced from southwest Languedoc. "Faim de Loup" translates to "Hungry like a wolf," the perfect moniker for a wine designed for southern France's rich stews and casseroles.Tasted: 22 May 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $19.99 | 750ml | select private retailers |
