but not crisp

forest floor and flint

blending the juice from their best lots into this entry-level Barolo

This is now more Burgundian than Rhône

I'd like to check back in on this in five or six years

Georges Vernay, Cote Rotie Blonde Seigneur other_regions but not crispStunning nose with very ripe aromas of pomegranate, orange and blackberry with a ton of smoke. Excellent concentration, but it is the brilliance that this is married to that makes the wine stand out. Extremely long and precise finish with great mineral freshness. A cuvee of 80% syrah and 20% viognier, co fermented. Partly matured in large oak foudre and partly in barrique. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
