Domaine des Entrefaux
Located in Mercurol, the wines of this village have more in common with Côte-Rôtie, rather than Crozes-Hermitage or Hermitage. Father and son team, Charles and Francois Tardy have been working together since 1979. They work in such close harmony you might think that Francois is just a mutant clone of his father.
Wine Review:
The 2007 vintage is the best Rhône wine year in 30 years, according to Robert Parker Jr. (The Wine Advocate), and the Tardy’s echo his sentiments. In fact, the quality of the wine was so high that it convinced Charles that he only had two options after producing the 2007 vintage: retirement or suicide. Don’t miss this pinnacle of Syrah!
Tasting Notes:
Opaque color, aromas of: hickory, smoke, tar and black pepper spice. Smooth mid-palate, long exotic northern syrah finish of grilled meats and tapenade (black olive paste).
