Each year, Laurent, the head winemaker, names the best-performing winemaker at the cellar after his most premium Crozes-Hermitage cuvée. In 2016, congratulations to Valerie! This 100% Syrah from the Crozes-Hermitage appellation boasts a rich and profound aroma, featuring hints of black fruits, green peppers, and violets. On the palate, it offers a delicate, ethereal, and enduring experience, with notes of raspberry relish, blood orange, and a subtle touch of charred wood on the finish.
