The estate’s very limited, very exceptional selection of pure Syrah from one of the appellation’s most hallowed and historic terroirs in Saint-Jean de Muzols. The vineyard ‘Aubert’ in Saint-Jean has been planted to vine since before the first world war; for years, Saint-Joseph legend Raymond Trollat tended ‘Aubert,’ and some of his (and the appellation’s) finest wines came from this high-altitude, stony vineyard. A selection of very old vine fruit from vines planted in 1930, this riveting, profound Syrah showcases winemaker Sylvain Gauthier at the peak of his talents; it’s a wine for the ages!
