The vines — 30 to 80 years old, trained in gobelet on decomposed granite — give the wine a structural minerality that's harder to find at this price anywhere in the Northern Rhône corridor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 is a beneficiary of a challenging vintage: the wettest year on record, with mildew pressure all season, then a dry August and cold north wind in September that concentrated whatever survived. The result is 12.5% ABV — low even for this domaine — with clean, bright acidity and a violet-and-cherry profile that drinks more like cool-climate Syrah than anything coming out of Cornas. Whole-cluster fermented, unfined, unfiltered, 25 mg\/L SO₂ at bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt; style=\"margin: 0;\"\u0026gt;\u003cp\u003ePAIRINGS :\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eDuck confit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efruit and acidity cut through rendered fat without fighting the gaminess\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eRoast chicken with herbes de Provence\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ethe wine's floral and herbal register matches herb-forward preparations directly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eGrilled pork tenderloin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003elean protein and cherry-fruit alignment; 12.5% ABV keeps the pairing agile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67645648928813,"sku":"etu1791819342556","price":28.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/5586\/7181\/files\/herve-souhaut-syrah-2024-750ml_1.jpg?v=1791819348","url":"https:\/\/www.hollowtreegoods.shop\/products\/herve-souhaut-syrah-2024-750ml","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
