"(Includes 10% viognier, all CĂ´te Brune fruit) Ruby-red. Mineral-accented blackberry and violet aromas are slow to unfurl and show a touch of olive tapenade. Brighter red fruits on the palate, with tangy acidity providing lift and clarity. Shuts down with air and finishes with very good spicy thrust and lingering minerality. Faury told me that this was only recently bottled."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
The northern Rhone's most prestigious red appellation, producing perfumed, elegant Syrah, often co-fermented with a little Viognier, from steep terraced slopes.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
