Crozes Hermitage is a favorite and this one excels. Drinking this in a restaurant in Chicago, Bistronomic. If I see this in a wine store, I’d grab a case. — 2 months ago

Warm yellow color. Smells like jasmine flowers and honey. Tastes of honeydew, lemon, and minerals. — 18 days ago
Spectacular wine! First pour was fruity and tart acting like a newly bottled Pinot. Amazing for a 14 year old bottle. But with a bit of air it transformed into a luscious full bodied smooth treat with a lovely bouquet of fruit and ripe earth. The finish just kept going. Enjoyed with a hunk of prime rib. — 5 months ago

Fantastic! Great fine mousse. First impression: big yummy yeast and not much fruit. Med+ acidity. After opening up for 45 minutes, less pronounced (but still significant) yeast, apple, pear, bell pepper, honey and cinnamon. Complex and very nice. — 18 days ago
