Product notes

In the Northern Rhône Valley, this 2023 vintage stands out for its remarkable balance, natural freshness and fine expression of terroirs. After a wet spring favourable to the vines, the summer was warm but not excessively so, with cool nights at the end of the season, ideal for preserving acidity and refining ripeness. As a result, the reds are showing great aromatic finesse, while the whites are revealing freshness combined with an elegant mineral structure. All in all, the 2023 vintage is proving to be a high-quality, charming vintage in the northern Rhône Valley.

Production notes

The grapes are destemmed and crushed. Fermentation, which is strictly temperature-controlled to preserve the fruit and aromatic freshness, took place in tank and lasted for around 20 days. The wine was then racked off to undergo malo-lactic fermentation before maturing another 8 months in tank.

Tasting notes

Beautiful ruby colour. Our Crozes-Hermitage opens with generous aromas of fresh red fruit, dominated by cherry. On the palate, you’ll be seduced by its delicious red fruit flavours, its liveliness and its juicy finish with mellow tannins.(Tasting July 2025).
