Le Sang des Seigneurs
In the Middle Ages Occitania (the actual southern half of France) is led by noble lords who share their political power. But Occitania is united by a common culture and a common language.
Red 2019 - Organic Conversion
Crozes-Hermitage
90 pts Gilbert & Gaillard
The 12-ha vineyard under organic conversion is located on the gentle slopes which extend over the Rhone River.
A very well-balanced Cru, a solar cuvée in which our passion for the terroir is expressed with the meticulous work done with the Syrah so emblematic of the northern Rhône Valley. Vinified in concrete tank and aged 12 months in old barrels, our Crozes-Hermitage is a complex and elegant wine offering a silky mouth that is expressed through round and melted tannins over a controlled power.
An elegant wine with character, perfect to accompany Mediterranean cuisine, spicy, Oriental and Asian cuisine.
