Sultry and classic Crozes-Hermitage from the masters of Syrah.
Grapes are hand selected at the Cave depending on origin, maturity and state of health - the grapes are categorised as either A, B or C, and incentives and assistance are offered to the growers to upgrade quality to A and B. Destemmed then fermented in vats for 10 -15 days at a controlled temperature, with pumping over twice a day to extract a measured amount of tannins, colour and fruit. After gentle pressing the wine is partly aged in tank for 6 to 11 months to preserve the purity and freshness of the fruit, and partly in French oak.
Cave de Tain Crozes-Hermitage Nobles Rives is a beautiful Syrah with floral red fruits, well-balanced and round with plummy and typically peppery notes. Classically structured, with a twist of smoky spice and green olive on the finish.
Pair with charcuterie, grilled red meats, chicken roasted with herbs and garlic, pasta with tomato sauces.
