ALAIN GRAILLOT 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Syrah (Rhone, FR)

100% Syrah from a famed Northern Rhone wine producer. 100% native yeast fermentation in concrete, aged in old use barrels. From the importer: 

"In France’s Northern Rhone Valley, there are few names as revered as Graillot...With each passing year his devotion to the art of making hauntingly delicious Syrah from his organically farmed, stone-laden vineyards, was rewarded with an ever growing and highly dedicated following around the world. Alain’s sons Maxime and Antoine have been in charge since 2008, continuing the legacy set forth by their father. All the work is still completely the same as it ever was: hand-harvesting, organic farming, whole-cluster fermentation, and aging the wines primarily in 1-to-3 year old barrels purchased from some of the top estates in Burgundy.
