2021 Aurélien Chatagnier, Saint-Joseph "Zélée", Rhône Valley, France
ABOUT THIS WINE
The 2021 Saint-Joseph "Zélée" is crafted from 100% Syrah grown in the Saint-Joseph appellation of the northern Rhône, where the vineyard’s steep, granitic soils and cool climate produce wines with both power and finesse. The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo a traditional fermentation process with natural yeasts. The wine is aged for around 12 months in a mix of stainless steel and French oak barrels, which enhances the wine’s complexity while maintaining its fresh, vibrant fruit character. "Zélée" is a wine that combines the aromatic depth and complexity of Saint-Joseph with the purity of expression that Aurélien Chatagnier is known for.
