Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet Les Cessieux 2022 – Northern Rhône Syrah

Origin & Craftsmanship:
Sourced from the esteemed Saint-Joseph appellation in France’s Rhône Valley, this 2022 Syrah from Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet embodies the elegance of Northern Rhône terroir. Winemaker Hervé Romaneaux-Destezet masterfully balances tradition and innovation, crafting a wine that redefines the boldness typically associated with Syrah. Certified organic and biodynamic, this bottle reflects a commitment to sustainable viticulture, ensuring purity from vine to glass.

Flavor Profile & Aromas:
Unlike conventional Rhône Syrahs, Les Cessieux prioritizes finesse over power. Expect a harmonious blend of dark red fruits—think ripe cherries and blackberries—layered with subtle savory notes reminiscent of smoky bacon fat. What sets this vintage apart is its vibrant floral bouquet, with hints of violet and lavender dancing on the nose. The 12.5% ABV ensures a light-bodied, refreshing finish, making it an ideal choice for those seeking complexity without heaviness.

Why Choose This Bottle?
Perfect for wine enthusiasts exploring organic options or those new to Rhône Syrahs, Les Cessieux offers a unique entry point to the region’s storied winemaking heritage. Its balanced acidity and delicate tannins pair beautifully with hearty dishes like grilled lamb or mushroom risotto, while its approachable character makes it equally enjoyable on its own.

Sustainability & Authenticity:
As a biodynamic wine, every sip supports eco-conscious farming practices. Note that vintage years and pricing may vary by retailer—secure your bottle today to experience Hervé’s “hedonistic” vision of Northern Rhône Syrah.
