The Dream of the Abbot - Abbey Sylva Plana - Faugères 2015
The expression of Syrah, wonderful grape varieties associated with the old Grenache, Carignans and Mourvèdres of Sylva Plana Abbey. Each vintage is dense, structured with fine and elegant tannins. The Sylva Plana Abbey, known on the Faugères appellation, is a monastic barn of the Sylvanès Abbey, which was founded in 1139. It is distinguished by its capitular tower in the heart of the Faugères shale terroirs. The Cistercian monks made this place an exemplary wine-making model. Today the Bouchard family and Cédric Guy combine in this vineyard and in wine making the ancestral heritage manual and modernism. This wine of guard (minimum of 4 to 5 years) is reserved for the best tables.
