Organic and natural wines of Ardèche

Some exciting winemakers are working here, and Meryl and Geraldine Croizier of "La Vrille et le Papillon" can certainly be counted among them. This 100 % Syrah is lighter and more versatile than most Syrahs found abroad, and can be paired with lighter fare (charcuterie) or with a meal featuring red meat.
