WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Les Jamelles Syrah boasts deep color and a syrupy consistency. Its wild fruit (raspberry, redcurrant, blackcurrant) and floral (violet) aromas harmonize with flavors of spices, vanilla and cinnamon, along with a touch of mint. This wine is very rich and full on the palate, with a touch of minerality as well as a long, silky finish that is of rare complexity and boasts a lovely lasting hint of licorice.
Serve with Mediterranean cuisine, spicy dishes, meat with sauce, game or cold cuts. Catherine Delaunay particularly recommends pairing it with Spanish tapas, lamb tajine with prunes, or spareribs in piment d’Espelette-spiked tomato sauce.
TASTING NOTES:
Deeply colored, lush, and juicy, with balance and depth; rich and long.

Enticing aromas of red roses, strawberries and vanilla open this wine. The palate is loaded with raspberries, vanilla and savory spices, with a bit of herbaceousness.
