ABOUT THE WINE
In 1960, André took over his parents' farm on the Ardèche plateau. Originally a cultivator of apricots and vines, Andre became one of the first winemakers to plant Syrah between the hill of l'Hermitage and the vertiginous slopes of Cornas. The Domaine extends over several communes, which allows production on various regional terroirs. They adopt an approach and a program that is respectful of the environment and ecosystem of their vineyard.

TASTING NOTES
A powerful red wine, fleshy and vigorous, which takes on great flexibility and harmony as it ages. Perfumed with violet, spices and blackcurrant. Produced on a hill overlooking Tain, in a steep hill with very steep slopes (30 to 50% gradient). Traditional vinification, vatting from 18 to 28 days, with punching the grapes and pumping-over. Maturing for 18 months in oak barrels (10% new).

FOOD PAIRING
Excellent with powerful dishes like red meat, leg of lamb or game.
