Wine Critic Reviews
James Suckling (N/A): This youthful syrah has a wealth of delicate forest-berry, white-pepper and flint aromas on the racy and stony, medium-bodied palate. So vibrant and expressive. Intense licorice and elderberry flavors at the finish. A cuvee from 2.5 hectares of hillside vineyards in the communes of Condrieu, Verin and Roussillon. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold.
