Syrah La Tour

D.O.P

Les Crêtes began producing its Syrah in 1995 as a table wine because it was not recognized as a P.D.O. in the Aosta Valley.

In 2007, legislation changed, and since then Les Crêtes has continued to produce its Syrah D.O.P., renamed for its minerality and freshness, linked to its mountain character.
