Domaine Belle

Les Rivoires

A family estate established on the former seigneurial lands of Larnage, out of the cooperative system in 1990 and managed since 2003 by Philippe Belle, at the head of 25 hectares of vineyards in six municipalities and three appellations (Hermitage, Crozes Hermitage and Saint Joseph). Organic conversion has been underway since 2014.

This 2014 vintage presents a beautiful deep ruby red with purple reflections, almost black. On the nose, this wine develops intense aromas of black fruits, sweet spices and fruit cream reminiscent of raspberry and blackberry. Then it is the slightly minty scents that enter the scene with almost saline, iodized, but also cocoa powder notes. The palate is juicy, full, and supported by a delicate freshness. The tannins are velvety and supple, which gives it that charming, catchy, almost feminine side that characterizes it from year to year.
