This cuvée, vinified ‘the old-fashioned way’ – that is to say, partly using whole bunches to enhance the variety’s delicate, peppery character – pays tribute to Stéphane Montez’s father. The result is a ruby-coloured wine with purplish highlights, leading into a sumptuous palate. The nose, with notes of pepper, liquorice and black fruits, is the epitome of what we love about the Serine from the Rhône.

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.
