à Louis et Léonie Papillon Crozes-Hermitage Syrah
Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Deep purple in color; black plums, black cardamom, and cigar box on the nose; medium plus acidity; medium tannins; tastes like black currants, camphor, and wet slate with a long finish. I like this wine

Ripe red and black fruit, smoke. Crozes-Hermitage often comes off as overripe and a bit flabby to me.

Fig, soft prune and a tar note to start; after a little air, more blackberry and a bit of leather. Very pleasant to drink.
