100% Syrah. This wine is a blend of 4 complementary vineyards within the Saint Joseph appellation. The colour is a deep, dark ruby red The nose is clearly marked by delicate aromas of cassis and spices. On the palate, the "François de Tournon" cuvée shows a smooth and voluptuous texture hidding a good but fine and silky tannic structure, that gives the wine great potential for ageing.
"Powerfully scented aromas of fresh black/blue fruits, potpourri, licorice and smoked meat show excellent clarity and vibrant mineral lift. Concentrated boysenberry, cassis and violet pastille flavors are joined by a salty olive note that sneaks in as the wine opens up. Finishes smooth, focused and very long, with broad, fleshy tannins, a hint of smokiness and lingering florality." - (92-94) Points, Josh Raynolds, Vinous
"A very powerful muscular nose with leather, game and sweet fruit. Noticeable acidity and forest fruits with sandy tannins. A very fresh taut style with a good level of fruit intensity behind it." - 16.5+ Points, Alistair Cooper MW, JancisRobinson.com
