Chêne Bleu - Héloise
93 points - The Wine Advocate
- In stock, ready to ship
- Inventory on the way
Concentrated, rich, ripe, red-fruit aromas with black pepper, smoke, cedar wood and sweet spices. Powerful but balanced and structured, with velvety tannins; ripe Grenache from old vines hits high notes of red fruit, backed up by intense Syrah.
A generous and intense wine, Héloïse is ideally suited to enjoy with lamb, red meat and roasted vegetables.
The 2010 Heloise is another in a string of fabulous wines from this estate located high up in the Ventoux. The smoky, herbal aromas are reminiscent of Côte Rôtie, and in many ways, this is a more northern expression of the Rhône. It's lithe and medium-bodied, with a silky mouthfeel and long, espresso-tinged finish, all imparting a sense of easy elegance to this blend of Syrah, Grenache and Viognier. It can be drunk now and over the next decade or more.
