Côtes du Rhône, La Syrah à Papa, Dom. du Monteillet - 2022

Provenance: Northern Côtes du Rhône
Appellation: Côtes du Rhône
Domain: Du Monteillet, S. Montez
Grape variety(ies): Syrah
On-call time: 5 years
Alcohol degree: 13.5%

This cuvée, vinified “à l’ancienne” (in the traditional way), i.e. partially in whole bunches to enhance the fine, peppery character of the grape variety, pays tribute to Stéphane Montez’s father. The result is a ruby-coloured wine with purple highlights, followed by a delicious, smooth palate. The nose of pepper, liquorice and black fruits is archetypal of what we love in the Rhône Valley.

Sheet

Technique

Viticulture

The vines for this pure Syrah come from a parcel of leased land opposite the estate on the other side of the Rhône on the left bank, with here a terrace of rolled Rhône pebbles which, heated by the sun, diffuse a gentle warmth at night, favoring grape concentration and ripeness; and a granitic parcel next to the estate.

Oenology

60% de-stemming. One-week pre-fermentation maceration, followed by 3-week maceration using the old immersed cap technique. Long, gradual fermentation without temperature control. Low-pressure pneumatic pressing to avoid bursting the pips. Aged 15 months in French oak demi-casks.
