Description of Crozes-Hermitage "La Guiraude"

Estate

Domaine Alain Graillot is a renowned estate in the Northern Rhône Valley, known for producing high-quality Crozes-Hermitage wines. The family-run vineyard prioritizes sustainable practices to fully express the unique terroir.

Vineyard

Located on the exposed slopes of Crozes-Hermitage, the vineyard benefits from a temperate Mediterranean climate mixed with continental influences. The soil, made up of granite and rolled pebbles, contributes freshness and structure.

Wine

The 2023 Domaine Alain Graillot Crozes-Hermitage red perfectly represents the appellation's typicity with its fine aromatic expression and freshness. This wine combines elegance and pure fruitiness.

Vintage

The 2023 vintage featured a warm but balanced summer, allowing optimal ripeness and a good balance between fruit and acidity.

Vinification and Aging

Traditional vinification emphasizes gentle extraction to preserve the finesse of Syrah tannins. Aging is mainly in stainless steel tanks to maintain freshness and primary aromas.

Blend

100% Syrah

Characteristics & Tasting

Tasting

  • Appearance: Clear garnet red with violet hints.
  • Nose: Intense aromas of fresh red fruits such as raspberry and cherry, with subtle notes of sweet spices and white pepper.
  • Palate: Soft attack, nice acidity balanced by silky tannins, fresh and persistent finish with subtle minerality.

Serving

Serve between 15 and 17°C. A light decanting of 30 minutes is recommended to fully reveal the aromatic potential of this young wine.

Food Pairings

Pairs well with matured rib steak, herb-crusted rack of lamb, Époisses cheese, or 24-month aged Comté.

Occasions

Ideal for important business meals, relaxed family Sundays, or reunions among friends.

Aging Potential

Can be enjoyed now but will gain complexity and finesse over the next 7 to 10 years.
