Farconnet

2018 Hermitage Syrah

Domaine Jean Louis Chave Farconnet is a striking red wine from the esteemed Hermitage region, renowned for its exceptional Syrah varietal. The 2018 vintage showcases a full-bodied profile, offering a robust structure supported by notable tannins that elevate its age-worthiness. Its acidity is bright and lively, providing a refreshing counterbalance to the wine's rich flavors. With a prominent fruit intensity, this wine reveals layers of dark fruit, primarily blackberries and plums, interwoven with hints of spice and earthiness. Harmoniously dry, it reflects the terroir of Hermitage, making it a perfect companion to hearty dishes or an indulgent experience on its own. This Gold Medal-winning wine exemplifies the artistry and dedication of one of the region's most revered producers.
