Syrah de Brousson 2017

At Brousson, facing the Cévennes, large Rhone pebbles and iron-rich clay give our Syrah exceptional depth. This wine is produced in very limited quantities and only in exceptional vintages. 2017 is a great vintage, rather “solar” but during which this great terroir vintage nurtured its vines perfectly. Yields were naturally very limited and a warm and very dry growing seasons with tempered nights produced very concentrated yet balanced grapes.

Appearance

Deep violet almost black.

Nose

Complex bouquet of violet, cassis, blackberry and white pepper.

Taste

Broad and lively with a dense and structured mid palate, and very fine tannins. The long and mineral finish lingers with accents of cassis, liquorice, and oriental spices.
