Yves Cuilleron Les Vignes d a Cote Syrah 2023 750ml

Northern Rhone fans take note here. UK wine writer Jamie Goode offers a pretty incisive introduction to the wines of French winemaker Yves Cuilleron: “In the space of a decade, Yves Cuilleron has established himself as one of the leading lights of France’s Northern Rhone…He is a modernist but not overtly, so his wines straddle neatly the divide between traditionalists and the new-wave, in the sense that they retain their sense of place, but express their site in a slightly more approachable, immediate way. There’s purity to the fruit, and where new oak is used it isn’t excessive.
