Skalli Grand Vin - Crozes-Hermitage La Maurelle 2007

Skalli Grand Vin - Crozes-Hermitage La Maurelle 2007

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