Agly Brothers

This collaboration between Michel Chapoutier and Jasper Hill owner/vintner Ron Laughton of Victoria, Australia, produce a single Côtes du Roussillon Villages cuvée that's based largely on Syrah, with a solid dose of Grenache. Completely destemmed and aged all in concrete tank, this is a fabulous, naked expression of the terroir in the Agly Valley. JEB DUNNUCK, erobertparker
