Description
Syrah from a cold climate. The balance is tense, with acidity and tannin in youth that softens with time. This wine pairs with rich, fatty cuisine in its youth (pot au feu, garbure, petit salé) and refined cuisine in its evolution.

Step by step, we have created a 12-hectare estate today in the appellation of Brézème located in the northern Rhône and in the Ardèche just next door, in the Ouvèze valley.
Our approach and philosophy are born from personal journeys, readings, meetings with emblematic winemakers around the world and unconventional farmers. Read more
