SENSORY EXPERIENCE

The Tasting

The Colour

A deep red colour with violet highlights, characteristic of the youth of a fine Syrah.

The Nose

Powerful and juicy, it reveals peppery and fruity notes (dark fruit, blueberry) supported by delicate oak.

Mouthfeel

Fleshy, combining roundness and power with silky tannins. Freshness brings balance through to a spicy, persistent finish, the signature of northern Syrah.

A northern know-how.

Winemaking

Hand-harvested on the schist hillsides. Traditional, parcel-by-parcel vinification (native yeasts). Sorting, crushing and partial destemming at the winery, followed by a 3-week maceration in open vats.

Ageing

Aged for 18 months in oak barrels to refine the tannic structure. Careful blending of the different parcels before bottling.

The excellence of the Rhône Valley

Domaine Yves Cuilleron

Yves Cuilleron is a leading winemaker in the northern Rhône Valley. Founded in 1920 and developed by Yves from 1987, the estate now covers 90 hectares across 6 prestigious appellations.

The vines are planted at high density (8,000 to 10,000 vines/ha) and grown using sustainable viticulture. Rigorous control of vine vigour (disbudding, leaf removal, green harvesting) ensures optimal ripening and absolute respect for the terroir.
