The Domaine Roche Redonne Estate
Domaine Roche Redonne, founded in 1979, is a family owned winery run by Henri and Genevieve Tournier. The property is located on the foothills of the Bandol appelation, along the Mediterranean Coast, in the town of La Cadiere d'Azur, near Bandol, and is surrounded by olive trees and garrigue (wild herbs).
The Domaine Roche Redonne Vineyard
The 12 hectare vineyard is farmed under organic method. Both Henri and Genevieve focus on the work on the vineyard in respect of the environment. The vines are more than 40 years of age on average (between 20 years old for the youngest and 60 years old for the oldest), which means very low yields, and the steep hilled vineyards can only be harvested by hand.

K Vitners The Hidden Syrah is made from 100 percent Syrah.
It is not a secret the magnitude this wine can reach. In this vintage, femininity reigns supreme. Perfume, flowers, cassis. All anchored to sense of place with stone, ancient soil and chanterelles that make this wine a wine of the earth.
Review:
Kirsch, ripe black cherries, roasted herbs, violets, and orange blossom notes all emerge from the 2018 The Hidden Syrah Northridge Vineyard, which is all Syrah brought up in neutral oak. Rich, full-bodied, and beautifully polished, it packs loads of fruit yet stays light on its feet, with no sensation of heaviness. As with all of these Syrahs from Smith, it's going to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age.

Flavors of sun-ripened pineapple and lemon crème are layered by guava, Asian pea zesty grapefruit, all integrated with a toasty complexity in this mouthwatering yet textured Chardonnay. Made with 100% Chardonnay.
Review:
An abundance of ripe stone and tropical fruit on the nose. It’s full-bodied with aromas and flavors of mango, yellow peach, salted butter and powdered praline. Lightly smoky with a crisp finish. Drink or hold.
