"Pungent smokiness, crushed stone, black tea, rosemary, plum, and black olive are among the wealth of intriguing aromas offered by Fulla’s 2004 Coteaux du Languedoc L’Ecriture, a blend of Syrah with 20% each Grenache and Mourvedre. Silken in texture and mouth-filling yet restrained in terms of the sweeter manifestations of ripeness, this elegant and restrained cuvee retains a delightfully fresh-fruited sense of purple plum and red raspberry, underlain by herbal nuances and a saline, carnal savor as mouth-watering as it is intriguing."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
A late-ripening red lending structure, dark fruit and gamey, meaty complexity to southern Rhone and Mediterranean blends.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
