Intensity and elegance from the northern Rhône
- The distinctive terroir of rolled stones (gallets) imparts remarkable concentration and aromatic complexity. This geological signature is fundamental to understanding the wine's mineral precision and layered fruit expression.
- Co-fermentation of Syrah with Viognier creates textural sophistication and subtle floral notes that soften the Syrah's natural power whilst preserving its essential character and depth.
- A wine of substance suited to robust fare: roasted beef, game birds, and mature cheeses. Its structure and tannin integration reward patient decanting and benefit from careful food pairing.

In the mouth
Robust and silken in texture, with well-integrated tannins providing structure without harshness. The finish is sustained and layered, revealing further nuance with time in the glass.
On the nose
Intense aromatics of dark berries, black pepper, and violet, with underlying smoke and mineral notes characteristic of Côte-Rôtie. The bouquet develops complexity with air.
On the eye
Deep, dark garnet. The colour speaks of concentration and maturity.
For those seeking to explore the power and refinement of northern Rhône Syrah at its finest. This wine demonstrates the appellation's capacity for elegance alongside intensity. Recommended for serious collectors and those with established cellars. Best appreciated after decanting.
