A syrah with great freshness and concentration.
A luxurious silky Syrah with fresh and bright flavours of Tapenade and Violets. Textured and lifted on the mid-palate and with a smooth ripe finish.
The vineyards of the Coteaux des Baronnies are situated high up behind Provence in the mountains that sit above the Rhône Valley overlooking the vineyards of Côtes du Rhône Villages and Vinsobres, which are on the western edge of the appellation. It is well known for its spectacularly clear night sky, so much so that there is an observatory up there. Fortunately for us it is less known for its spectacular vineyards at high altitude and even less so for the quality of its Syrah, a varietal that is produced in small quantities up there giving wines with great freshness and concentration.
The grapes are cool fermented then gently pressed to extract crunchy dark fruit flavours.
Perfect with roast lamb, hearty winter soups and grilled ribs. Finish with a mature cheese such as parmesan.
