Crozes-Hermitage Syrah
Shining through with a little grit to burn. Lamb cassoulet handled that.

Jul 13th, 2015Sad to see the last one go. Lots of complexity and texture with blue & black fruits, nice grip, but not mean, and all the peppery, olivey, and beef jerky Syrah goodness I could ask for.

Apr 12th, 2015Rich and spicy on the nose with dark brambly fruit and notes of black pepper, violets, leather and bacon fat over a base of crushed granite. Big and smooth with fine, polished tannins a lively acidity that support juicy wild berries and gamey flavors. Rustic and dusty, the wine finishes elegant and feminine.

May 18th, 2014A pleasant sort of funk, rather like a mild fart along with delightful fruit.
