Product Info
The 2022 Domaine Alain Graillot Crozes-Hermitage La Guiraude represents a distinguished expression of Northern Rhône Syrah, crafted by the esteemed Domaine Alain Graillot. This limited-production wine is released exclusively in exceptional vintages, reflecting the producer's commitment to quality and terroir-driven winemaking. On the palate, this wine reveals a sophisticated and layered profile, presenting notes of ripe plum and dark cherry complemented by savory undertones of roasted meat and floral hints of violets. The wine is structured by firm, well-integrated tannins and vibrant acidity that provide excellent aging potential and food compatibility. The finish is notably persistent, characterized by mineral-driven graphite notes that linger elegantly. A testament to the quality of the 2022 vintage in the Northern Rhône, this Crozes-Hermitage exemplifies the region's reputation for producing world-class Syrah wines with depth, complexity, and refinement.
95 Points
Grape Variety: 100% Syrah, sourced from organic vines on gravelly, alluvial soils near the Hermitage slopes.
Winemaking: Hand-harvested, whole-cluster fermented, and aged in 1- to 3-year-old barrels sourced from Burgundian estates.
Aromas & Palate: The wine opens with expressive aromatics of lavender, dark cherries, and savory cured meats. The medium-bodied palate is concentrated yet elegant, showing layers of plum, currants, fresh peppercorn, and forest floor.
Finish & Cellaring: It features a striking, saline-driven finish with iodine and smoky mineral notes. While highly aromatic in its youth, its structured tannins mean it can cellar beautifully.
