The fruit comes from a tiny parcel along the slopes of the Doux river, vines averaging around 50 years old, planted on the granitic soils that define the whole Romaneaux-Destezet estate, where Hervé and his partner Béatrice have farmed just five hectares since 1993 (the IGP\/Vin de France cuvées carry the Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet name, a tribute to Béatrice's family estate, while the AOC Saint-Joseph wines are labelled under Hervé's own name). Following the methods of natural-wine pioneer Jules Chauvet, the grapes are hand-harvested, given a cold pre-fermentation maceration as whole bunches, fermented spontaneously on native yeasts in wood and concrete, then aged on fine lees in seasoned oak for eight to twelve months — gentle, minimal-intervention winemaking designed to extract a delicate balance of tannin rather than the heavily extracted, decades-to-soften style more typical of the Northern Rhône.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe result is exactly what's made Souhaut a cult figure among natural wine lovers: violets, black cherry, and bacon fat on the nose, with blackberry, wild raspberry, cracked pepper, and a distinct granite-driven minerality carrying through a vibrant, silky palate. The tannins are famously featherweight, letting the wine's purity and freshness take centre stage, while critics have repeatedly noted it drinks beautifully young yet holds real potential to evolve into something genuinely spectacular with age\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet (Herve Souhaut)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50556083273893,"sku":"5562669","price":88.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/2597\/2133\/files\/Syrah.jpg?v=1791258741","url":"https:\/\/wine.thestunnedmullet.com.au\/products\/domaine-romaneaux-destezet-herve-souhaut-syrah-2025","provider":"The Stunned Mullet Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
