Chene Bleu’s property is nestled in a UNESCO heritage-listed reserve among the diverse flora and fauna at one of the highest elevations in all of Southern Rhone, 2,000 feet above sea level.  The remarkable 340-acre estate has functioned as a working vineyard since the Middle Ages. The high-altitude vineyards benefit from warm daytime sun and cool nights allowing a longer, gradual ripening season. The resulting wines embody the aromas and flavor of southern Rhône, together with the finesse and elegance of northern Rhône and the aging potential of the region’s finest AOCs. Héloïse is the Flagship Syrah blend named after the famed philosopher Héloïse d’Argenteuil, brilliant disciple-turned-lover of Pierre Abélard, fearless and forward-thinking. Showcasing the elegance and restraint of cooler-climate Syrah, with some fleshy Grenache and a touch of Roussanne to add floral aromatics. Rich, intense, and focused with plenty of ripe fruit, toasty aromas and liquorice. A powerful wine, yet well-balanced, complex and ample, with black fruit and fine, present tannins. Rich and lengthy on the finish.
