In the mouth
Dense and powerful, with tightly woven, well-defined tannins. Dark fruit intensity mingles with spice, leather, and black pepper, underpinned by a mineral spine. The finish is long and persistent, marked by refreshing acidity and smoky nuances.
On the nose
Profound aromas of ripe dark fruits—blackberry and cassis—interwoven with black pepper, liquorice, and leather. A mineral edge and subtle floral note betray the granite bedrock beneath.
On the eye
Deep, intense garnet with violet glints; nearly opaque at the core.
Breeding
14 to 18 months in oak barrels, with a measured proportion of new wood to add structure and complexity whilst preserving the fruit's authenticity
Temenos is a commanding Cornas of breeding and depth. Its aromatic complexity and structural integrity mark it as a wine of genuine character—ideal for game, braised meats, and aged cheeses. Remarkable cellaring potential makes this a bottle for significant occasions, when it has achieved full maturity. Essential for those who seek Syrah in its noblest, most untamed expression.
