Provenance: Northern Côtes du Rhône
Appellation: Crozes-Hermitage
Domain: Laurent Habrard
Grape variety(ies): Syrah
On-call time: 7 years
Alcohol degree: 12.5%

A ruddy colour. The aromatic profile is irresistibly reminiscent of noble Syrah on granite, with notes of violet, cherry, rosehip, white pepper and a subtle hint of bacon. A masterful texture on the palate, with a flared, continuous shape. The tannic structure is fine, with no rough edges, and the finish is very fresh, sapid, without heaviness. A real favourite!

Technique

Viticulture

The highly fragmented vineyard is made up of a multitude of small vines located in the communes of Gervans, Crozes-Hermitage, Erôme and Pont de L'Isère. To the north, the soil is a mixture of decomposed granite and loess on the steepest slopes, and deep clay on the plots near the Rhône. To the south, the terroir is made up of thick layers of rolled pebbles from different ice ages (Riss and Würm) mixed with red clay and forming relatively flat reliefs known as plateaux or terraces. Age of vines: 15 to 70 years.

Oenology

Laurent Habrard has been growing his vines organically since 2008. Depending on the slopes, the trellising and the spacing between the rows of vines, the work is more or less mechanised or manual.
