Bit of mint. Super balanced. Ripe tannins and present acidity. This is one of the best Crozes I’ve had. It lacks that dirt of the usual crozes. Wonderful.

First time trying this. Gorgeous nose. Mint, berries, such pure Syrah fruit, really nice. Palate is deep and pure. Sappy and juicy. Really clean. Granite, minerals. Balance is great. Sneaky length. Great stuff. 2015 Crozes is awesome.

A little too stemmy and rustic for my taste.

Good stuff - bright, minerality, and savory with pepper notes and smoked meat. Some dark fruit, but this is a bright savory version of Syrah.
