Full bodied but fresh and lifted, it’s a wine that offers both immediate pleasure and also plenty of unfolding complexity as the wine evolves in the cellar or opens up in the decanter.
The Graillot’s Crozes Hermitage is such a pure and uncomplicated version of Northern Rhone Syrah that it is the perfect wine for conveying the essence of the region.
With organically farmed vines that are harvested by hand, not much has changed in the vineyards of Alain Graillot. This whole-cluster fermented 100% Syrah has all the markers of Crozes-Hermitage.
Pairs well with beef, lamb, deer, venison, and poultry dishes.
