The Rhone Valley stretches almost 500 miles from North to South and is home to some of France's oldest vine plantings that were first cultivated in Roman Times. The region is split into Northern and Southern Rhone, both of which are very contrasting regions. From the North, the appellations of Hermitage and Cote Rotie produce some of the most famous and rare wines from Syrah, harvested from the very steep slopes carved into the hillsides. It is also here that the world's best Viognier is produced from the Condrieu appellation.

A rich and expressive nose of blackcurrants and blackberries, undergrowth and leather. Complex aromas up until then uniquely reserved to wine having aged for a long period of time, are already present. This wine has a powerful roundness on the palate with an impressively long finish.
