Les Belles Echappées

Soil

The Appellation develops over a vast terroir. It is an area of multiple convergences: rivers and climatic influences. The interplay of river deposits has created quite different soils, but terraces of rolled pebbles mixed with clay are the most widespread.
These complex situations can create capricious vintages, which is what gives this appellation its charm!
Nous avons voulu retrouver à Crozes-Hermitage un terroir plus frais, où la Syrah règne de longue date en tant qu’unique cépage, mais dans un terroir de terrasses de cailloutis roulés et non plus d’éboulis calcaires.

Grapes

100 % Syrah

Harvest and Vinification

Traditional vinification. Little marc work to avoid rusticity.
Short maturing period in oak barrels for several wines.

Tasting notes

In our blend, faithful to the styles of wines we like at Marrenon, we have tried to combine these expressions of fresh red fruit (blueberry, blackcurrant, redcurrant) and floral notes (violet).
