Sold in Europe as "La Pleiade" Made from Chapoutier's selected Hermitage and Cotie-Rotie syrah grapes which are planted in Heathcotes Australian red soils.

Balanced red and black fruit mixed with spices, this is excellent. 97 points by Monica Warner WA. Give it some more time in the cellar.

Even better on day two with vintage port like characteristics. Definitely 96+ with some more time in the cellar
