Wine variety : 100% Syrah

The Land : Clay  and  rocky  terraces.

Vinification : Vendanges manuelles en caisses, égrappage complet au-dessus de la cuve, arrosages fréquents du « chapeau*», fermentation et macération pendant un mois.

Maturing of the wines : During 24 months in casks made from Lithuanian oak.

Observations : In the begining of the maturing  process this wine abandons its characteristic  mediterranean flavors, and  resembles  more a grand cru from the North of Rhone. The well melted tannins stay in the background to assure the longevity and the  finesse of the texture. The aromas of mature fruit mix  well  with  the worn  path of an afternoon walk  through  the forest. 

A the table  : Open the bottle  and air one or two hours before serving. This wine needs strong flavored acompaniements to pair well  with  the  complexity of the wine. It would  go well  with a roasted duck or any game fowl simply  roasted, try  to avoid heavy sauces.
