DOMAINE PIERRE CROS - Le Clos 2017
Domaine Pierre Cros is located in the Minervois appellation, in Languedoc. His father Henry and his grandfather Marius, even if they owned a few plots of vines, were above all the bakers of the village of Badens. Pierre Cros did not study oenology but learned the essential gestures of the winemaker in the field, in the 1970s. The estate covers fifty hectares of which only half is planted with vines. The other part is made up of garrigue, almond trees, olive trees, oak trees and Pierre Cros has long understood the importance of respecting the environment and understanding his terroir that is why he refuses any organic or biodynamic certification since he has always worked this way.
Le Clos 2017 is made entirely from Syrah, harvested manually at very low yield and then aged 18 months in carefully selected barrels.
Grape variety: 100% Syrah
