Syrah Barrique · Rhône
About
▸ Strawberry. Blackberry. Garrigue.
▸ 40-day maceration, 12-month barrique.
▸ Warm stones vs soft tannin.
From Suze-la-Rousse’s stony garrigue plot, this Syrah-led blend smells of gariguette strawberry and ripe blackberry, finished with wild herb lift. Clay-limestone packed with heat-storing galets explains the ripe fruit even in a quick midweek pour.
Sourced from Suze-la-Rousse’s stony garrigue belt, the blend leans 70 % Syrah grown on calcareous alluvium studded with heat-storing galets. Lionel Boillot ages the Syrah twelve months in barrique while Grenache and Mourvèdre rest in concrete, aiming for fruit depth without heavy oak. Expect blackberry, sweet spice and supple tannin.
