Mention the Rhône Valley to anyone around the world and a small chapel perched upon a vine clad hill is likely to be one of the first images that springs to mind. Not only is the image romantic, it is so closely associated with being one of the best Syrahs in the world, it evokes a myriad of emotions – admiration, respect, envy and desire. Winemakers around the globe aspire to make Syrahs of this complexity and intensity, such is the reverence in which it is held. La Chapelle in Hermitage is one of the finest and most iconic vineyards in the world. It belongs to Paul Jaboulet Aîné.

Hand-picked at maturity. The mixed grape varieties are co-fermented with the grenache to fix the colour and the tannins. Syrah is vinified separately with maceration and soft extraction that last about 3 weeks. Aged for 6 months in stainless steel vats and truncated cone-shaped vats on fine lees.
