Tasting note

This could easily be a top Hermitage, icon of the Rhône valley. It has an inky-dark colour, and massively complex and concentrated aromas of succulent, brambly fruit intertwined with rare beef, fragrant wood and leather. On the palate it is succulent, velvety, rich and satisfying, with fine freshness and balance, and extraordinary length.

In the press

95/100 - Intense aromas of blackberries, grilled meat, some dried meat and hints of graphite that follow through to a full body with plenty of fruit and tannins that flow across the palate. Hints of vanilla. Creamy and velvety. Extremely well done in a slightly opulent but balanced rendition. Give it a year or two. Drink or hold.

Vinification

100% Syrah grown on gobelet-trained bush vines and harvested by hand. The best clusters were hand-selected in the vineyard, and again in the winery. Pre- (cold) and post-fermentation skin maceration, total 30 days. Malolactic conversion and maturation in 100% new barrels (64% French and 36% American) for 20 months.
