Alléno & Chapoutier

Smoked lard and speck appear with freshness in this Syrah. The structure is tight and velvety. The grapes were fully destemmed, and maceration lasted four weeks in concrete vats with regular pump-overs. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentations were carried out with indigenous flora in barrels. Maturation lasted twelve months in previously used barrels. The vines grow in brown and colluvial soils derived from metamorphosed granite.
