The wine region of Hermitage
Mythical northern Rhône cru on the eponymous hill on the left bank: signature Syrah as ruling red (≤15% Marsanne/Roussanne allowed) — dark robe, intense aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant, spice, pepper, clove and violet, powerful texture and racy tannins, decade-long ageing. Signature Marsanne and Roussanne as ruling whites — white flowers (hawthorn, honeysuckle), dried fruits, honey and a buttery touch, aromatic finesse. AOC 1937, granite slopes, Massif Central.
The wine region of Rhone Valley
France's 2nd-largest AOC vineyard, two complementary worlds. Northern: pure Syrah in signature reds (Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas), deep and peppery with blackberry, violet, black olive and smoked bacon notes, exceptional ageing. Opulent Viognier whites (Condrieu, apricot, flowers) and ample Marsanne-Roussanne. Southern: sun-soaked Grenache blends at Châteauneuf, Gigondas, Vacqueyras (candied fruit, garrigue).
The word of the wine: Erinosis
Generally benign condition caused by a very small mite. The infested leaves show blisters on the upper surface, sometimes reddish, sometimes green, to which corresponds on the lower surface a dense felting, first pinkish white, then brownish or reddish.
