ABOUT THE WINE
This legendary red is a masterful blend of multiple lieux-dits across the Hermitage hillBessards, Mal, LHermite, Peleat, and moreeach contributing its own nuance to the final cuve. The 2022 vintage, marked by balance and precision, benefits from a growing season that combined warmth with cool nights, preserving Syrahs aromatic lift and structural freshness. Vinified with a thoughtful use of whole clusters, native yeast fermentations, and aging in large, mostly neutral oak foudres, the wine is a portrait of place and patience. The inclusion of fruit from the granite-rich Bessards brings tension and longevity, while Les Mal adds flesh and breadth. Pair with game, aged lamb, or earthy mushroom dishes for a seamless synergy.
