Tasting Notes

Clos Bellane, perched atop the Vinsobres plateau with an expansive vista of Mont Ventoux, boasts a sprawling 48-hectare domain enriched with active limestone. This remarkable terroir bestows their artisanal wines with a rare combination of structural freshness and intricate minerality. This 100% Syrah wine marries the opulence of the Southern Rhône with the elegance characteristic of the Northern Rhône. The nose is a delightful fusion of cherry and blackberry flavors, accompanied by subtle undertones of soot and coffee. With aeration, savory notes slowly reveal themselves. On the palate, you'll experience a wine that is both rich and powerful while maintaining impeccable balance, thanks to its fine, dense, and precise tannins.
