More wild scrub brush, violets, and peppery notes emerge from the 2019 Côtes Du Roussillon Villages Lesquerde L'Esquerda, a Syrah-dominated blend (there is 30% Grenache) that’s medium-bodied, nicely textured, balanced, and even elegant. It’s another seamless, beautifully done Roussillon from this estate that will deliver loads of pleasure over the coming 4-6 years or more.
James Suckling: 92 Points
An intense nose with wild dark berries, dark plums, game, cloves and some undergrowth. Mineral driven with firm but precise tannins, a characteristic of the granite soil. Medium to full body with good balance. Crunchy fruit with plenty of juicy cherries and black pepper at the end. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
The cement-aged 2019 Cotes du Roussillon Villages Lesquerde l'Esquerda is a blend of 85% Syrah and 15% Grenache, from relatively high-altitude (400-500 meters above sea level), granitic sites. Scents of crushed stone and blueberries mark the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate finishes dusty and long, framed by fine-grained tannins.
