Syrah is a typical grape variety from the Rhône, predominantly used on its own in Northern Rhône, and mostly used in blends in Southern Rhône. The hot and dry climate from Vaucluse, as well as the stony, round pebbles soils allow the grape to ripen well keeping a nice freshness, in order to deliver the typical aromas of Syrah.
