muscular and classy finish

Very ripe liqueur-like aromas of various black berries are nuanced by plenty of spice and floral elements

Georges Vernay, Cote Rotie Blonde Seigneur other_regions_italy all bound in a silkyStunning nose with very ripe aromas of pomegranate, orange and blackberry with a ton of smoke. Excellent concentration, but it is the brilliance that this is married to that makes the wine stand out. Extremely long and precise finish with great mineral freshness. A cuvee of 80% syrah and 20% viognier, co fermented. Partly matured in large oak foudre and partly in barrique. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
