Maison Ventenac 'Eve' Syrah 2024

Maison Ventenac is a modern winery in Cabardès, a little pocket of the Languedoc. Here, they blend Rhône grapes with Bordeaux grapes, which is basically unheard of in France. Grenache and Syrah meet Merlot and Cabernet. HOWEVER. This one is just Syrah. No blend. Just pure, dark, spicy, structured. Meaty, spicy, grippy, with chewy tannins that actually want to be at your dinner table.

Drink it with a steak, a roast, anything that wants a red that doesn't mess around.
