"A lovely interpretation of a Paso Robles-styled French Crozes-Hermitage, Clos Mimi's 2006 Petite Rousse Syrah exhibits intense raspberry, black cherry, and currant fruit interwoven with licorice and meaty/animal-like notes. With medium to full body, silky tannin, and a broad, savory mouthfeel, this provocative red should drink well for 3-5 years."
