The La Motte Syrah pampers the senses with a classic aroma of red berry fruit and black mulberries as well as fine hints of juicy plums. This fruity side combines with spicy nuances of black pepper and well-integrated oak wood notes as well as with the wonderfully creamy texture of this highly endowed Syrah. A full-bodied and finesse-rich drop, which inspires!

The grapes were harvested ripe, but not too late, destemmed and sorted by hand. The alcoholic fermentation took place in open steel tanks at controlled 20° to 24°C. The malolactic fermentation started in the tank and ended in French 300 l barriques, where the wine matured for 14 months. Before bottling, the wine was blended with 15% Durif to give it maximum colour and structure. 30% of the barrels were new, the rest were second and third filled.
