Domaine de la Terre Rouge, Sierra Foothills, Ascent, Syrah 2003 White Gold – Hong Kong International

Gold – Hong Kong International Wine and Spirit 2015

almost no wood (they only use 5000+ liters „foudres“) intermixed with some spices and flowery aromas

Aged in 228l oak barriques and 600l demi-muids for 24 months using a minimum of new oak

I continue to think this is one of Prévost's finest releases of the decade

Mingling notes of citrus oil and white flowers with hints of crushed chalk and rock salt

Domaine de la Terre Rouge, Sierra Foothills, Ascent, Syrah 2003 White Gold – Hong Kong International94 Points CellarTracker Member Tremendous bottle of wine. Shared with old friend LR, who is very much a Syrah fan. Dark fruit and leather and spice. Excellent balance and mouthfeel. What a pleasure to get to drink this wine. Terre Rouge wines are consistently fantastic, in my experience. 3 8 2025 94 Points CellarTracker Member Nose of dark cherries, pomegranate, cranberries, leather, saline, granite, and graphite. This wine manages to be big and bold
