Finally some black pepper! A relatively rare aroma in northern Rhône Syrah these days. Oregano touches too. Medium-bodied, with good concentration. Made from some bought grapes and some bought wine, with 85% whole bunch and light extraction. From various communes across the northern pole of St-Joseph.
