Crozes-Hermitage AOC Syrah
Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
This is fantastic. The Domaine bottling here is so so good. What a nose. Dark flowers, huge bacon, huge florals, wow, what florals, dark blackberry, smoke, grilled meats and sizzling bacon. Mint, menthol. What a nose. Total 2015 in the best possible sense. It commands your attention. Palate is superb. Amazing fruit, obviously young but such power and depth with really fine tannins. So pure. Amazing tiny berry fruit intensity. So balanced and what a finish. 2015 is so good. This Crozes is something to reckon with. So much finesse and sick texture. So long.

Great winemaker
Classic crozes. Not trying to be something it isn’t. Just a great example of what it is.
Nose is fresh hand crushed blueberries and wild blackberries. As this opens Gorgeous lilacs.
Palate is juicy. Not heavy like many 15s.
Bought from fass selections

Sooo good...Violets mixed with blue and purple fruits. Smoky, meaty and iron clad. Perfect for ribs without breaking the bank. Solid value.
