Skalli Grand Vin - Crozes-Hermitage La Maurelle 2007

Award: IWC Red Winemaker of the Year 2009
The Petit Grain Syrah is the sole grape variety used in this Crozes-Hermitage cuvée , “La Maurelle.” A crisp 2007 vintage, displaying great finesse and a beautiful aromatic richness, with notes of ripe stone fruits (cherries, plums, blackberries) mingled with floral notes of violets. Supple, well-integrated tannins give this wine fullness, body, and balance. A must-try!
