Partly aged in large oak ‘foudres’ and partly in tank, bottled early to capture all the freshness of fruit.
Deep red in colour with a concentration of ripe black fruit, liquorice and a hint of spice. Round, sweet and supple tannins on the palate with a great length.
A characterful, complex blend of fruit from vineyards in both the northern and southern sectors of the appellation. The average age of the vines is now over 25 years and this is a rich, generous example of creamy, ripe Syrah. Carefully extracted tannins give fine structure. A lovely, complete Crozes-Hermitage that is already delicious to drink but will age gracefully.
