OUR WINES
Les Hauts Granites
AOP Crozes-Hermitage
Grape Variety
100 % Syrah
Terroir
Parcel located in the northeast of the appellation (north of Les Chassis) on very poor granitic soils with some gravel. The vines are between 65 and 87 years old.
Vinification
90% destemmed, with slow fermentation in concrete vats lasting 6 to 8 weeks. The key lies in carefully preparing a base of “wine blood” with finesse and depth, starting from the pruning stage. Late ripening here allows for the inclusion of some stems during fermentation, provided they are well-browned.
Tasting Notes
Ultimately, our aim was a wine that is taut yet with “shoulders,” mineral yet filled with ripe fruit, fresh yet smooth, and endowed with an exceptional palette and length.
