2022 Côtes-du-Rhône “L' Emouvante”
Domaine GramenonDomaine Gramenon's prowess with Grenache has been proven over many vintages, with top wines such as their cuvée La Sagesse demonstrating the purity and sensual texture the variety can deliver from old vines in top terroirs.
L'Emouvante is a newer addition to their lineup, a pure Syrah made from the same parcels that produce La Sagesse. The combination of limestone, sand, and clay soils, along with 100% whole-cluster vinification and aging in neutral barrels, gives a Syrah of rare breed, especially this far south. Deep, concentrated, and refreshingly saline, this is like great Cornas with Mediterranean influences.

Let the brett nerds retire into protective bubbles, and whenever they thirst for wine it can be passed in to them through a sterile filter. Those of us on the outside can continue to enjoy complex, natural, living wines.
