Very stylish and reverberant. Rich and racy. Very convincing despite the vintage reputation. But early maturing. (JR)

Just 2,247 bottles filled. Aged for 20 months in French barriques of which 25% were new. Bright garnet. Light and fresh – very pure. Light black pepper. Pure North Rhône flavours. Super clean but with a pure fruity middle. Impressive persistence. (JR)

Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2012 Syrah has a great core of plums and blackberry preserves with black pepper, dried herbs and licorice accents. Medium-bodied with remarkable texture - both velvety and grainy - it offers mouth-filling pepper laced flavors and a lively acid backbone, finishing long.
