Fruity

Hailing from the prestigious Hermitage appellation, the Le Taurobole 2023 is a red wine made from Syrah, the emblematic grape of the Northern Rhône Valley.

On the nose, it reveals a beautiful aromatic intensity, blending ripe black fruits, violet, spices, and a subtle peppery touch. With aeration, deeper notes emerge: cocoa, black olive, and a hint of smoke.

On the palate, the attack is ample and structured. The tannins are present but already well-integrated, providing a solid backbone to the wine. The overall balance is excellent, with a dense texture and a persistent finish marked by spicy and mineral notes.

The 2023 vintage offers beautiful fruit ripeness while retaining freshness, promising excellent aging potential.

Food Pairing:
Perfect with a ribeye, duck breast, game, or an aged cheese.

Aging Potential:
Enjoy now after aeration, or cellar for 8 to 15 years for greater complexity.

Domaine Jean-Louis Chave

A landmark in the Hermitage appellation, Domaine Jean-Louis Chave is an absolute reference in the Northern Rhône Valley. A family estate since the 15th century, it is today run by Jean-Louis Chave, representing a long line of winemakers committed to excellence and respect for the terroir.

The estate works with historic plots located on the finest granite slopes of Hermitage. Each vineyard site is vinified separately to preserve its identity before being blended to create wines of great depth and remarkable precision.

The philosophy is based on meticulous viticulture, controlled yields, and long élevages, mostly in barrels, allowing the wines to develop structure, complexity, and aging potential.

The estate’s red Hermitage wines are renowned for their controlled power, fine tannic structure, and incredible aging potential. The rarer whites combine richness, tension, and exceptional longevity.

An emblematic estate, where each vintage perfectly reflects the grandeur of Hermitage.
