Crozes Hermitage Red "La Butte d'Or" 2022 Organic - Alain Jaume 75cl
The 2022 Crozes-Hermitage is an iconic red wine from the Rhône Valley, made from 100% Syrah. Its terroir is composed of well-draining gravel, formed by the rivers at the confluence of the Isère and Rhône rivers. These soils, capable of storing heat, promote a beautiful expression of the Syrah's aromas.
Vinification begins with manual harvesting, followed by complete destemming and vinification in stainless steel vats. A cold pre-fermentation maceration allows the aromas to be delicately extracted.
On the organoleptic examination, the wine reveals a powerful nose with aromas of violet, blueberry, and blackcurrant, enriched with undertones of mint and black pepper. On the palate, the Crozes-Hermitage stands out for its finesse and juiciness, offering a velvety texture that delights the palate.
To fully appreciate this wine, it is recommended to taste it between 1 and 5 years after the vintage, at a serving temperature of 16°C. This Crozes-Hermitage 2022 will seduce lovers of elegant and gourmet wines, perfect to accompany red meats or spicy dishes.
