Domaine Yves Cuilleron, Syrah Les Vignes d'à Côté, 2024

Domaine Cuilleron is famed in the Northern Rhone for stunning Côte Rôtie, Saint Joseph and Condrieu in an impressive portfolio of wines. This Syrah shows a snapshot of Cuilleron's pedigree, without the premium price tag. This is an exceptionally well-made red, with lovely notes of crushed blackcurrant, black pepper and leathery notes. The palate displays lush raspberry, cherry, blackberry and cracked pepper flavours, all lent freshness by the vibrant acidity.
