"(Made from fruit grown in Greffieux and Méal, half of it destemmed; aged in used barriques for 18 months): Bright purple. Potent scents of cherry pit, blueberry liqueur, licorice and bitter chocolate, accompanied by a smoky accent that builds in the glass. Densely packed and alluringly sweet, offering smoky black and blue fruit, spicecake, olive and floral pastille flavors energized by a jolt of cracked pepper. Smooth, harmonious tannins come in late on the sappy, smoky, impressively long finish."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
Produces some of the world's most powerful and long-lived Syrah from a single granite hill, yielding dense, structured reds and rich whites.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
