While most of the vineyards of Courbissac cluster close to the Domaine, there is a plot of 45-year-old Syrah grown in a sheltered site on chalky clay-limestone soils in the neighboring village of Les Félines. Capable of producing a style of Syrah more characteristic of the Northern Rhône, Brunnhilde and Reinhard have drawn their inspiration even further to the north – Burgundy. They harvest this Syrah once it has reached 13% potential alcohol, ferment it whole cluster with ambient yeasts, and press it after a 10-day, undisturbed maceration, followed by aging in clay eggs—all necessary steps to ensure a floral, lively, and lithe Syrah.
