Domaine Les Bruyeres (David Reynaud)

View Winery Website

Located in the heart of the Crozes Hermitage appellation, the Les Bruyères estate extends over more than 27 hectares of vines. There, in a soil made up of clay-limestone terraces, planted in land drained by the pebbles typical of the terroir, the Syrah is celebrated with multiple attentions and will give birth to the AOP Crozes Hermitage wine. Other grape varieties are also cultivated on the vineyard, such as Persan and Merlot for red wines, Marsanne, Roussanne, Mondeuse blanche and Viognier for white varietal wines, and finally Grenache for rosé.

Managed by David Reynaud since 2000, the Les Bruyères estate aims to produce great wines by working in the greatest harmony with nature . Certified organic* and biodynamic* agriculture, the estate favors hand-cultivation at each stage: disbudding, lifting, elimination of the hearts, harvesting, sorting on the table, etc. These traditional methods, gentle on the fruit and not very greedy in fossil energy, are then relayed by gravity, to the cellar, by an elaborate system of vats with natural shapes and materials.
