Why all but the best New World Syrah practitioners should just quit and take up another variety. Framboises, umeboshi, roast venison, herbs...all within a fresh, tender and lifted structure. Juicy and ripe on the finish, yet not at all cloying. Crozes can’t be better than this.

Authentic authoritative aroma and deep dense structure. Almost perfect balance.

What a blackberry and pepper nose! Intoxicating. The palate is well done with a strong acid backbone, a dense matter on the sides with a superb blackberry that rolls on the sides, nice tannins that give a kick in the rear and a long finish with blackberry. One of the best crozes I've had
