Yves Cuilleron Crozes-Hermitage Lieu-Dit Les Chassis 2015

Yves Cuilleron Crozes-Hermitage 'Lieu-Dit Les Chassis' 2015

• Region: Rhône Valley
• Sub-Region: Crozes-Hermitage
• Varieties: Syrah

Vineyard Sourced from the renowned Les Chassis lieu-dit, where alluvial pebbles and gravel terraces help produce deeply concentrated fruit. This warm, well-exposed site is particularly suited to Syrah, especially in a ripe vintage like 2015.

Wine A mature and powerful Northern Rhône Syrah with aromas of blackberry, smoked meat, cracked pepper, and black olive. The palate is full-bodied and savory, with velvety tannins, dark fruit concentration, and a long, spice-laden finish.

• Braised lamb shanks
