Matthieu Barret Cotes du Rhone Petit Ours 2023

$2599

Luscious, unfettered Syrah. Matthieu Barret is a pioneer of organic and biodynamic farming in Cornas, where his Domaine du Coulet works granite terroir, but Petit Ours comes from his Côtes-du-Rhône fruit further south, off clay soils in the Visan area. It's 100% Syrah, fermented with native yeasts in concrete and raised about nine months with little to no sulfur, the kind of low-intervention approach that lets the grape's juicy, mineral side shine. This is the everyday, gulpable face of Barret's work: dark, peppery, and fresh, all fruit and energy, no oak getting in the way. Pour it young and don't overthink it.
