Clairmont

Northern Rhône Syrah and Marsanne from Crozes-Hermitage's granite slopes.

Clairmont produces wines from the Rhône Valley, focusing on the northern region of Crozes-Hermitage. The winery's portfolio centers on Syrah-based reds that reflect the appellation's character: structured, mineral-driven expressions of the granite-rich terroir. The flagship Crozes-Hermitage draws from Shiraz/Syrah, while Les Palais Crozes-Hermitage offers a complementary take on the same varietal. For white wine drinkers, Domaine defrance Notes Blanches Crozes-Hermitage showcases Marsanne, the traditional white grape of the northern Rhône. Both Wine Enthusiast and Decanter have rated Clairmont's releases, with the reds and whites earning scores in the low 90s, indicating wines of substance and balance suited to the region's reputation for age-worthy depth.
