'12 Sentinelle de Massiac Minervois - Innkeeper - 10-12-2014

2012 Sentinelle de Massiac, Minervois ($14.99 in upscale shop; alcohol level 14%). It is 70% Syrah and 30% Cinsault. A lovely wine that was lush and jammy with hints of peppercorn and wild herbs; it was spicy on the palate with a soft minerality, and a nice finish. We matched it with fillet steak in bacon rasher, rubbed with Morton rub and grilled over charcoal and mesquite chips; for sides we had baked sweet potatoes and baby peas. Yum!
