Eric Texier Cotes-du-Rhone Rouge Saint Julien-en-St. Alban Vieille Serine 2015 (1.5L)
Syrah vines over 70 years old—called "serine" by locals—give this wine its name and soul. Whole-cluster macerated for eight to ten days, fermented with indigenous yeasts in wooden tanks, then aged 36-48 months in large foudres without fining or filtration. A wine of transparency and tension, this is Eric Texier's revivalist testament to nearly forgotten Rhône terroir, drinking beautifully after a decade of age. In magnum for optimal evolution.
