Fitou 2013 - 'an impeccable drop'

A massive thank you to Neil Cammies for this lovely tasting note on my Fitou 2013 - 'an opulent style of Fitou'

‘'Katie Jones has had to deal with quite a bit in her wine-making career, but this doesn’t stop her making an impeccable drop.Her DOMAINE JONES FITOU 2013 (£13.50, The Wine Society) is a classic blend of carignan, grenache and syrah, resulting in an inky dark colour in the glass.The spicy bouquet of the darkest fruits has touches of blackberries and tarter blackcurrants. In the mouth the fruit is held in line with the structured tannins and a smidge of spicy wood tones.The warming black pepper heat continues through to the long, earthy finish. An opulent style of Fitou from Katie’s vineyard in the village of Tuchan.'
