Bright, attractive floral aromas of violet and peony, with black cherry and raspberry fruit. Medium-bodied, with fresh, fine and light tannins. Good acid balance and sense of freshness. This vintage received a relatively gentle oaking, to its benefit. Long finish, with a real sense of finesse. This is 100% Syrah, made from 49-year-old vines, planted on a very steep terraced schist vineyard on the border of Côte-Blonde. Completely destemmed, fermented in concrete then matured for 18 months in a large wooden tank, 30% of which is new. La Mordorée is very good in 2017.
