This estate wine is a blend of Syrah (80%) and Grenache Noir (20%), grown on a "gress" terroir—siliceous pebbles deposited by the Rhône River that promote ideal grape ripeness while preserving natural freshness. Biodynamic practices enhance the health of the vines, and careful winemaking—with the grape varieties vinified separately—ensures an authentic expression of the appellation. On the palate, it is generous with fruity and floral aromas, yet remains elegant and easy to drink.
