Presentation
This range reveals other expressions by exploring other characterful terroirs in addition to our historic appellations.
These prestigious appellations have been shaped and matured while retaining the hallmarks of our wines: elegance, richness and delicate tannins.
Terroir
The Appellation develops over a vast terroir. It is an area of multiple convergences: rivers and climatic influences. The interplay of river deposits has created quite different soils, but terraces of rolled pebbles mixed with clay are the most widespread.
These complex situations can create capricious vintages, which is what gives this appellation its charm!
Nous avons voulu retrouver à Crozes-Hermitage un terroir plus frais, où la Syrah règne de longue date en tant qu’unique cépage, mais dans un terroir de terrasses de cailloutis roulés et non plus d’éboulis calcaires.

On the palate
A style on the palate with a freshness that is coated and integrated into sensations marked by softness and roundness. Sculpted, taut but velvety on the palate, with fine tannins....
Food pairings
This red wine is the perfect accompaniment to chicken colombo, rack of lamb with herbs and jus, or truffle risotto.
