"This inky-hued 2024 Côtes Du Rhône Villages Vaison La Romaine Shyrus offers juicy blackberries, pepper, liquid violets, and crushed stone. Made from 100% Syrah that was destemmed and aged 12 months in barrique, it's nicely concentrated, with ripe tannins and clean, integrated acidity. This is a solid effort that shows the purity of the variety beautifully. There are roughly 1,666 cases produced. 89-91points." - Jeb Dunnuck 11/25
- This wine comes from their estate vineyard in Saint-Roman-De-Malegarde.
- Its exposure on the North side of the hill offers a magnificent freshness.
- The vineyard of Saint-Roman-De-Malegarde contains chalky clay-limestone slopes, with a North-West exposure.
- This Cuvée is elaborated with a selection of the most healthy and ripe Syrah of their vineyard.
Varietal Composition: 100% Syrah
Elaboration: The harvest is sorted and destemmed. The vinifications are long to allow optimal extraction and are done in concrete vats. Aging in French oak barrels for one year.
Tasting Notes: This wine has a deep garnet color with purple highlights. The first nose is complex and after a slight aeration it emerges aromas of black berries compote and candied cherry. In the mouth, we detect a beautiful acidity with tannins well present and structured. This wine offers aromas of black fruit and toasty notes on the finish.
