Domaine Les 4 Vents Crozes-Hermitage 2022

A characterful organic Crozes-Hermitage from old-vine Syrah, combining dark berries, lively freshness and savoury spice with a subtle touch of oak.

🍇 About the wine

This Crozes-Hermitage is produced from 30- and 40-year-old Syrah vines across two distinct terroirs. The grapes are harvested by hand, and each terroir is vinified separately in vats with indigenous yeasts before the final blend is assembled.

The wine matures for 14 months, divided equally between vats and demi-muids. This measured élevage preserves the fruit and freshness while adding texture, spice and gentle oak complexity.
