Description
1 Wine Spectator
100% Syrah
Glacial alluviums of smooth pebbles. Vines : 10 to 35 years old – 0.3 acre – Yield : 12/ 35Hl/Ha
The grapes are harvested by hand, destemmed, then cold macerated and fermented in open concrete vats with regular temperature control. During this
period, the winemaker treads, punches and pumps over several times.
The wine is divided (35% in new barrels, 35% in one-year barrels, the rest in 2-3-year barrels) and left to mature for 13 months.
Emmanuel Darnaud started his domain in 2001 with just 1.3 hectares of vines but now has 15 hectares, all in Crozes-Hermitage.His detailed
work in the vineyard and regard for the fruit in the vinification process have ensured his place amongst the “big boys” with his first 2001
vintage.The quality of his wines has earned him great praise in French and international revues, as well as a place in many Michelin-starred
restaurants. “If you like dark, rich, smoky-styled Syrah, this is a domain for you to try.”J. Molesworth.
