this kind of bitterness all the modernist are fighting by using new oak or more recently added roasted grape tannin preparations.

Really? Sounds cool, please tell us more!

Where do I get me some of them roasted grape tannins?

This brand is very much in favor in Ampuis these days.
Good choice. If you need any just ask. We can trade with morels.
Sorry not being able to give you any advice,though.

Nice, thanks!

I can't wait to try them.

So many choices, though.

Didn't see soylent green on that list. Maybe lost in translation?

2012 Hervé Souhaut Syrah smells carbonic, with red fruit, spices and a smokey note. Sappy mouth, good weight and balance, but a lardy finish before food. Quite pleasant, but somewhat generic glouglou; makes one think of carbonic convergence.

Checking for notes on this wine I found this (to me, forgotten) thread where Eric Texier basically positions Souhaut as anti-Gonon. Worth re-reading his and others' comments.
