(12x75cl) 2015Indulge your palate with the exquisite 'Cuilleron Crozes Hermitage Laya 2015'. Renowned producer Yves Cuilleron, known for his meticulous craftsmanship in the Northern Rhône Valley, brings you this unparalleled Syrah. Born of the estate's old vines in Chavanay, the fruit is manually harvested and only the best mature bunches are chosen. Phenolic maturity is ensured with whole-cluster fermentation at controlled temperatures, whilst 18 months ageing in oak casks builds complexity.
The resultant wine is a harmonious blend of power and elegance. Boasting seductive aromas of ripe fruit and touch of spice, its palate teases out the nuances of blackcurrants, violets and black olives. Fine-grained tannins bolster the lush flavours, finishing with resplendent minerality. Cuilleron Crozes Hermitage Laya 2015 is indeed a study in balance and refinement; a testimony to the prowess of Yves Cuilleron. A must-try for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
