The structure and finesse of a red wine from the Rhône Valley
The property
An emblematic name of the great wines of the northern Rhône Valley, the House of Paul Jaboulet-Aîné was founded in 1834 in Tain L'Hermitage. The renowned oenologist and winemaker Caroline Frey has been running this illustrious house, owned by the Frey family since 2006. The House of Paul Jaboulet Aîné oversees a vineyard of 125 hectares of vines, spread over exceptional appellations such as Saint-Joseph, Crozes-Hermitage, Hermitage, Cornas, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu or even Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise.
The vineyards of Hermitage and Crozes Hermitage have been biodynamically managed since 2017.
The vineyard
The oldest estate of the appellation, the Domaine de Thalabert has been owned by the House of Paul Jaboulet Aîné since 1834. Covering 45 hectares and located on the lower terraces of the Rhône on a pebbly soil of limestone origin, this terroir with vines aged 40 to 60 years gives birth to a great Crozes-Hermitage wine.
Vinification and aging
The grapes are hand-harvested and sorted in the parcel. Total destemming. 3 weeks of maceration accompanied by daily pumping over. Malolactic fermentation. Aging for 12 months in stainless steel tanks (20%), wooden truncated vats (50%), French oak barrels and demi-muids (30% of which 15% is new wood).
Blend
Syrah (100%).
