Skalli Grand Vin - Hermitage Roc de Monge 2006

Skalli Grand Vin - Hermitage Roc de Monge 2006

Awards: Selected by the Guide Hachette, IWC Red Winemaker of the Year 2009
The Hermitage Roc de Monge is made from Syrah vines grown on very steep, almost vertiginous granite-sand slopes. This highly concentrated single-varietal wine develops powerful aromas. It offers a well-developed bouquet with notes of humus and forest floor, along with floral aromas of violet. A wine that is both powerful and harmonious— well worth discovering!
