Rhône Valley, France

100% Syrah

Hervé Souhaut created Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet in 1993. Hervé works 5 hectares of old & ancient vines, between 50 to 100 years-old, located on the right bank of the Rhône Valley just opposite the storied hills of Hermitage. This region is widely recognized as being one of the finest areas for wine production on the planet; thanks in part to its elevation, ancient vineyard sites & the southeastern & southern exposures.

Hervé’s St Joseph vineyard is located high up on the slope of St. Joseph, one of the better sites among the appellation. From these vines, one can clearly view the fabled Hermitage slope, which shares very similar soil, slope, and soil characteristics with this vineyard.
