Bonnefond are the new generation front runners of both Condrieu and Côte-Rôtie. A domaine to keep an eye out for and watch it evolve. 100% Syrah from vines up on the Côte near Mornas, just outside the appellation of Côte-Rotie. A complex and generous Syrah with notes of Kalamata olives, black pepper and violets with a touch of soy sauce and a little bit of age.
This is lovely, bright red fruits mingled with a hint of red cherry and violets, a touch of pepper too, all kept in check by fresh acidity, delicious on every level.
