For more information on this complicated love story click the link: The winery made both of these wines to showcase their uncompromising commitment of their love, passion and thinking of their vineyard. Whereas Héloïse, the Syrah blend, shows a more elegant and softer side with restraint. Abélard, the Grenache blend, is strong, bold and structured. Unfortunately they were forced into separation but their love lasted decades of monastic seclusion and correspondence. In the Middle Ages, Abélard was a theologian and philosopher who had an illicit romance with his disciple Héloïse. Abélard is one of two of their leading wines, Héloïse the other.
