Grape Syrah.
Floor
Our Hermitage "Monier de la Sizeranne" comes from an assemblage of different soils, arranged from West to East:
• Bessards: of granite origin, it is the soul of a good Hermitage.
• le Méal: old alluvial terraces rich in gravel and rolled pebbles, more or less calcareous.
• Greffieux: silt soil with a strong presence of pebbles rolled.
The Harvest
Manual harvest at the optimum of maturity.
winemaking
The harvest, destemmed with 100%, is vinified in concrete vats. One to two times a day, a pigeage ensures a good extraction. The temperature varies between 30 and 33 ° C.

12 at 14 maturing in oak barrels give this wine woody notes, one of the elements of the bouquet.
Several rackings allow a slow and natural clarification.
CROZES HERMITAGE BLACK ETOILE DOMAIN MELODY 2020
Now unavoidable, the vintage Etoile Noire comes from vines older than 50 years and raised for a year. The Black Star 2018 is a balanced and powerful wine at the same time, offering beautiful aromas of ripe fruit and black cherry. A great success.
The vineyard is planted on 3 very different types of soil:
The objective of the domain is toexpress the authenticity of the terroirs, this involves different approaches: - A reasoned fight for phytosanitary treatments: contact products such as Sulfur and Copper are preferred
- The use of organic fertilizers - The absence of weed killers and soil cultivation throughout the vineyard for balanced vines - Naturally controlled yields
- Manual harvesting with a first sorting at the plot
CONDRIEU SAINT COSME 2019
100% Viognier. Granitic arenas. Eight months old. Breeding 40% in pieces of a wine - 30% in pieces of two wines - 40% in pieces of three wines. Condrieu leaves no amateur indifferent. We like or we do not like Condrieu. There is no half-measure, it's a fact. But it is a paradox that I have trouble understanding. Condrieu is criticized for being a wine difficult to marry with food. The good deal: it is precisely because it is difficult to marry that it is a great wine of gastronomy. Its strong identity opens fertile paths in the gastronmie but it does not support the approximation. From this point of view, I would like to compare it to the yellow wine of the Jura, which is the wine of gastronomy par excellence but which is "marriageable" with few products. However, just be a little daring: forget the sugar on a poached foie gras and replace it by the maturity of Condrieu. Or try the Condrieu on a Stilton, the pinnacle remaining the Condrieu with the bouillabaisse: certainly a dish that is not cooked every day but everything deserves. Our 2017 comes with its usual depth and nice bitters that contribute to the freshness of the wine. Salinity is still there, deploying the granitic mineral of our soils. The "white wine" version of Cote Rotie is, like its alter ego, a great wine of maturity. There are no great wines without ripe grapes: this simply does not exist. Fennel, licorice, elderberry, old rose, anise.
