The 2018 vintage continues to be 100% Syrah but sees no oak aging. This is super energetic and vibrant. Dense fruits which we usually get from Gerald but this has a distinct freshness and acidic line - our favourite Larmande yet!
There are tart black berries and salty black olive; the acidity carrying a mouthwatering lick of balsamic. The 2018, whilst still displaying the typical Mazel rusticity, definitely has a certain charm and elegance; the tannins slighly soften and the wine itself more open.
