Ferraton Pere & Fils La Tournee Grenache Syrah 2021

Founded in 1946 in Tain-l'Hermitage, Ferraton Pere & Fils applies a clear, fruit-first approach to its southern French blends. La Tournee Grenache Syrah 2021 follows that brief with fully destemmed fruit, gentle extraction and fermentation in tank to keep aromatics bright and tannins supple. Maturation continues in stainless steel rather than oak, preserving vibrancy and a clean line. In the glass the wine sits at medium body with red and dark berries to the fore, a thread of pepper and a touch of dried herb that underline variety and origin. The palate is even and supple, framed by soft, fine tannins and fresh acidity, finishing dry and tidy without sweetness or heaviness. Aim here is straightforward drinkability and clear regional character rather than weight or wood, making this a reliable table red that works across simple weeknight dishes as well as casual bistro fare. It is an accessible snapshot of careful sourcing and a light cellar touch, delivering uncomplicated pleasure with balance and clarity.
