2020 Domaine Rostaing, Puech Noble Rouge, Languedoc

Description

Pierre Rostaing from the Rhône’s famous Côte Rôtie estate, has produced a sublime, elegant, herby, black cherry-ripe 2020 Puech Noble Rouge, from his Languedoc venture. It’s mostly Syrah, topped up with a dollop of Mourvèdre.

Jane MacQuitty, The Times (May 2024)

Made from 70% Syrah and 30% Mourvèdre, this great little red from Pierre Rostaing’s venture in the Languedoc has a gorgeous nose of red cherry laced with cranberry. The aromas are succulent, ripe and fine. The palate is really enticing with such depth. There are beautiful layers of more red cherries and cranberries, along with an almost Jazz apple-like refreshment. Gentle blackberry hints add softness to the flavours. Yet the wine has focus and precision, and a fantastic river-stone finish. The tannins are fine and corduroy-like, soft yet present and gently resolving on the tongue. This is lovely.

About this wine

Languedoc

Languedoc

This appellation is either a useful assemblage of the top enclaves in the Hérault department or an extremely unhelpful conglomeration of vastly different sub-regions, yet it is not short of significance or potential. All the principle grapes are represented, with Carignan and Cinsault reduced to a maximum of 40 percent apiece to encourage more fashionable varieties, especially Syrah and Mourvèdre.
