Yves Cuilleron a Chavanay, Saint-Joseph (Rhône Valley, France) 2019

Dec 13, 2023

By Rebecca Murphy

 Yves Cuilleron’s grandfather created the winery in 2015 using his oldest vines from his Syrah vineyard.  He was the first to bottle their wine for the commercial market.  This 100% Syrah offers enticing black cherry, blueberry, blackberry fruit with notes of black peppercorn that introduce delectable, juicy black fruit.  It is a medium bodied wine with balancing acidity and integrated ripe tannins.  We served it with Hungarian Mushroom Soup.  It will also pair well with roast chicken or a roasted pork tenderloin.
