M. Chapoutier Hermitage Monier de la Sizeranne 2016 750ml

The M. Chapoutier Hermitage Monier de la Sizeranne appears deep garnet red, with purplish lights in the glass. The nose reveals notes of red fruit (rapberry, blackcurrant), with a hint of liquorice. The palate shows good attack, a round and elegant wine with concentrated and gentle tannins. The final is on blackcurrant, raspberry and spicy (pepper) aromas when it is young.

Pair with venison fillet in red wine sauce. Beef rosted. Mature "Saint Félicien" cheese.

100% Syrah. Our Hermitage “Monier de la Sizeranne” comes from a blending of different soils from West to East: • “les Bessards”: from a granitic origin, it constitutes the “soul” of a good Hermitage. • “le Méal”: old alluvial terraces, with a lot of gravels and shingles more or less calcareous. • “les Greffieux”: silty soil with shingles.

18 months ageing, 85% of which takes place in oak barrels, giving the wine its notes of oak. The remaining 15% is aged in concrete tanks to preserve minerality and freshness.
