About the wine

In a moment rich with symbolism, a portion of the wine is first poured into an ancient Sassanid-era amphora. Each bottle of Cyrhus is one of a kind, bearing a tribute to Persia – the historic cradle of winemaking.

Tasting notes

The wine is a powerful, deep-red colour with bluish highlights. The aromatic palette includes hints of green and black olives, along with a bouquet of spicy notes dominated by saffron. This is a wine of remarkable balance, full-blooded and powerful yet fresh with menthol nuances. The tight, finely wrought tannins offer remarkable length on the palate, building to a refreshing finish with a distinctive tang. A true original and a wine of great character, to be experienced and enjoyed as a work of art, the accomplishment of a life-long dream.

About the winemaker

Cyrhus is a unique wine project that revives Persian winemaking traditions in France, blending ancient cultural heritage with modern techniques to create a symbolic, limited-edition cuvée inspired by Cyrus the Great. Through its deep roots in Persian history and innovative craftsmanship, Cyrhus represents a rebirth of Persian identity and a celebration of shared cultural values.
