Les Cornas du Domaine
Les Ruchets

Les Ruchets - 2007

PRODUCTION AREA: Granite areas on the steep slopes of the right bank of the Rhône.

GRAPE VARIETIES : 100% Syrah from very old vines (90+ years).

VINFICATION: All work in the vineyards is done manually. Grapes are de-stemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks after a long maceration of 30 days. The wine is then aged for 18 months, 70% in new oak and 30% in one-year-old oak barrels.

TASTING NOTES : Inky black color. The nose is complex with both floral and fruity flavors. On the palate, flavors of black fruit, blackcurrants and herbs dominate, accented by a touch of vanilla. A solid, concentrated wine that will continue to evolve for at least two decades.

 

Pairing
This wine will match perfectly with steak and most game meats.
