Grown nearby the northern Rhone Valley appellations, this IGP. expresses the fruitiness of young wines, all the while preserving. the typical character of wines from this region. Terroir. Surface area: 10 hectares. Districts: Marzas (Drôme),. Malleval (Loire). Grape varieties: 100 % Syrah. Soils: Sandy. Yield: 50-55 hl/ha. This vineyard is planted in the plain of. the Drôme around the Crozes-Hermitage. appellation and on the granite plateaus. overlooking the Saint-Joseph appellation. The. soils are especially adapted to vine-growing. They produce fresh and supple wines that. are typical of the northern part of the Rhone. Valley. Maturing. In vats or in casks for 6 months. The wine is matured on lees in vats in. order for the tannins to become more. supple, thereby combining well with the. fruitiness offered by the Syrah grape variety. Strawberry, raspberry, black currant and. red currant aromas come to the fore. In its. youth this wine exhales very fresh and very. pleasant notes. Region Description. Australian name for the grape known as Syrah in France. |
