J.L. Chave Sélection Hermitage Rouge Farconnet (2022) – Northern Rhône Syrah with smoked meat, violet, olive, cracked pepper, and dark berry notes layered over firm structure and mineral tension. J.L. Chave Sélection gives drinkers access to the Chave family’s Rhône expertise through carefully sourced appellation wines, and Farconnet consistently overdelivers for Hermitage. The 2022 vintage carries both power and precision, showing the savory, age-worthy character that defines classic Syrah from this part of France. Serious enough for collectors, but approachable young with air and food.
