Clusel-Roch Syrah "Sirene", 2022, 750ml

Description

Clusel Roch became one of the first growers in the region to bottle their own wine, which took place for the first time in 1969. As Rene Clusel began managing a small parcel in Les Grandes Places lieu-dit, where the oldest vines were planted in the late 1930’s by his father Baptiste Clusel. However in 1989, Clusel-Roch was officially born, named after its owners, Gilbert Clusel and Brigitte Roch who inherited a small parcel in 1987. They began a program of massale selection in 1991. Their son, Guillaume Clusel joined the estate in 2009 after completing his studies and officially took the reins in 2021 after his parents retirement and in 2022 he partnered with Gaëlle Bonnefond, a childhood friend who started at the domaine in 2017.

"Sirene" is a specific clone of Syrah. This bottling is equal parts delicious dark fruit and deep savory flavors. Think blackberries and rose balanced with spice and umami.
