A magnificent Syrah from granite-rich hillsides, combining purity, finesse, and depth. The nose reveals aromas of black fruit, violet, and spices, while the palate captivates with its silky texture, freshness, and refined tannins, leading to a lingering, slightly smoky finish. Sun-kissed and generous, the 2017 vintage—more opulent and charming than classic, yet perfectly executed by Chave—offers an excellent balance between richness and finesse.
