Domaine Lafage Narassa Lieu Dit 2014, Côtes Du Roussillon, Roussillon A.C., France: Purple and black charred plums with a great intensity and concentration in this wine that comes from the intense heat of the region. Full-bodied and supple. Pair with prime rib. OTHER: From one of the warmest sites in France, the 2014 Cotes du Roussillon Villages Lieu Dit La Narassa comes from 70-year-old vines planted in the black schist soils of Maury. Despite the rugged, hot terroir from where this beauty comes, the wine is pure silk and elegant, with lots of black raspberry, chocolate covered currants, pepper and olive notes giving way to a full-bodied 2014; it has polished tannin and a seamless texture. A blend of 70% Grenache and 30% Syrah that was aged mostly in concrete tank (20% in demi-muids), drink it anytime over the coming 4-5 years.
