Domaine de Boisseyt Crozes-Hermitage Horizon 2020, AOC Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, France
White Wine
£41.65 (inc VAT)
This white Crozes-Hermitage is made from 20 year old Roussanne vines, planted on the famous 'Coteau des Pends' ridge in the Mercurol commune, once reputedly offered its own appellation in the 1930s when its white wines sold at the same price as white Hermitage. The 'Horizon' has a generous aroma of ripe summer fruits and honeysuckle, with a rich yet delicate freshness. An everyday luxury!
The first mention of Domaine De Boisseyt 'Viniblio de Boissie' dates back to the 14th Century, however, it is more recently! after the French Revolution in 1797 that Domaine De Boisseyt is formed. Family run for six generations by the Chol family, and now the Decelle Family, Romain Decelle aims to convert the entire estate to organic viticulture and re-establish Domaine De Boisseyt as one of the great Northern Rhone producers alongside Guigal and Chapoutier.
