About this Item

2012 The Graillot Project Syrah, Heathcote
2 (1 x 2) 750ml

Crozes Hermitage legend Alain Graillot and his Australian importer Robert Walters have come together to produce a special Syrah from a single vineyard in Heathcote, Victoria (Australia). In France, Alain Graillot has become famous for producing Syrah wines that have the perfume and finesse of Pinot Noir. Could he achieve the same in Australia? When Alain's imported Robert discussed with him a site he was working with, interest quickly spiraled and the Graillot Australia project was born. With an unconditional focus on quality, the second release continues the vision to create wines of intense fruit and site expression, which emphasize elegance, purity and precision.

Alain Graillot passed away earlier this year. This is a real collectors wine.
