Rhone Valley Adventure

This exquisite bottle of Syrah hails from the Northern Rhône, specifically the esteemed Saint Joseph appellation, which ranks as the second largest in the region, only surpassed by Crozes-Hermitage. Cultivated along the precipitous banks of the Rhône River, the vines thrive in predominantly granitic soils, a key factor that imparts a refreshing and vivacious quality to the wine. On the palate, anticipate a symphony of aromas: the richness of blackberries, the intriguing essence of black olives, and delicate whispers of violet.

Venturing further south, we delve into the heart of Southern Rhône, renowned for its signature blend, GSM, an acronym representing the harmonious trio of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. These blends are often known for their robust and oaky character. However, this particular bottle sets itself apart with its elegance and finesse, produced from vines that are 40 years old, these mature plants bestow an extraordinary depth to the wine's bouquet. Prepare your palate for an intricate tapestry of flavors: the luscious darkness of berries, the rustic charm of dried herbs, and a profound earthiness reminiscent of a forest floor, all culminating in a beautifully balanced ensemble.
