Details and technical informations about Winery Lavau's Syrah.
Discover the grape variety: Barras
It most certainly originates from the Tarn region, a variety that has completely disappeared from the vineyard and is therefore on the way out. It was very difficult to find documentation concerning it, especially since there is a slight confusion with malpé. D.N.A. analyses processed by a specific software (U.M.R.-A.G.A.P. Montpellier) indicate that malpé is the result of a cross between cahours and fer.

The wine region of Rhone Valley
The Rhone Valley is a key wine-producing region in Southeastern France. It follows the North-south course of the Rhône for nearly 240 km, from Lyon to the Rhône delta (Bouches-du-Rhône), near the Mediterranean coast. The Length of the valley means that Rhône wines are the product of a wide variety of soil types and mesoclimates. The viticultural areas of the region cover such a distance that there is a widely accepted division between its northern and southern parts.
The word of the wine: Aging
Period during which a wine is kept in a cellar where it goes through different phases of evolution of its aromatic range and a maturation of its constituents (evolution of the colour, refining of the tannins, harmonization of the different flavours, etc.). The wine evolves better and less quickly in large containers, whereas it deteriorates prematurely in half-bottles.
