100% Syrah, Stéphane Vedau is an expert winemaker and vigneron known for crafting wines that express their terroir. The J. Boutin is named after his mother, Jeannine Boutin. Stéphane cultivates small family parcels from some of the finest sites in the Northern Rhône, including Haut des Chassis and Larnage, where he works with 60+-year-old vines. The grapes are hand-harvested, with 25% whole cluster fermentation using indigenous yeast. The wine is aged for 18 months in a combination of 20% older barrels and 80% stainless steel, remaining unfined and unfiltered. This results in layered aromatics and flavors of black fruit, minerals, spice, and floral notes, complemented by a velvety texture, luscious yet graceful tannins, juicy acidity, and a lingering finish.
