HÉLOÏSE
Refined, with unwavering elegance, our Syrah blend is named after the brilliant and beautiful Héloïse d’Argenteuil for its balance of concentration, restraint, and its ripe, supple texture. Our fine Syrahs blend beautifully with the highly perfumed old-vine Grenache, but also blossom with the floral notes of our high-altitude white varieties, like Viognier and Roussanne, bringing Héloïse stylistically closer to her cousins in the Northern Rhône, hence our hommage to Côte Rotie.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Héloïse likes ‘feathers’, especially goose, duck or turkey with the trimmings. Best suited for white meats and more delicate flavor profiles than Abelard. It also pairs beautifully with lamb and stuffed mushrooms. Decant for several hours and serve at room temperature or slightly cooler. Aging potential: 20 years or more.
