Varietal Birthplace Year
Syrah Costières de Nimes 2010
This classic Rhône red evokes the craggy, brambly landscapes that make Southern France so irresistible. Give the glass a swirl and breathe in aromas of black plums, lavender, pepper and smoke. It’s a juicy wine with flavors of wild currants and berries with hints of dried herbs.
Blackcurrant, plum, pepper, dried herbs, game.
Sixth-generation vintner Cyril Marès makes consistently delicious wines in the underrated Costières de Nîmes region, a slice of southern Provence. In his twenties, Marès traveled and worked abroad, gaining experience at California’s Chalone Vineyards and in Chile before returning to France in 1996 to take over his family’s estate. He turns out spicy, barrel-aged red wines, rich whites and vibrant rosés under the Mas de Bressades and Mas Grand Plagniol labels, all from estate grown grapes.
The plump texture, herb-flecked flavors and molded tannins of this French beauty bring to mind hearty dishes from the South of France, such as lamb with pistou, chicken with a rich tapenade or a grand cassoulet. Stews, ragouts and other braised dishes of poultry, duck, veal or lamb will make great textural complements to this wine.
The city of Nîmes became a Roman colony sometime before 28 B.C. and grew to 60,000 inhabitants. It is home to extraordinary Roman public works like the Pont du Gard aqueduct bridge, which is the highest the Romans built anywhere. The aqueduct formerly carried an estimated 44,000,000 gallons of water a day to the fountains, baths and homes of the citizens of Nîmes.
