Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe dark berry fruit and floral spice, 30% of wine was aged in new oak. On the palate flavors of juicy raspberry and black plum fruit, with licorice, earthy pepper and black olive notes, vivid acidity, good balance. Firm tannins, long finish ending with spicy fruit character. Drink now and over next 5 years. Good value.

What was left in the bottle by the 3rd night turned to an enjoyable liquid violets. Prior nights were underwhelming. Too young. Regardless, good value, especially at that 3rd night sweet spot.

Another One Bites The Dust! Bought a 3 pack from a local neighborhood French Restaurant to show support and love this Holiday Pandemic Season. Yes to the toasted almonds which comes out when the wine is a little more “room temp”, fatty and creamy uniqueness.
60% Marsanne 40% Roussanne and 100% Happy!

This was delicious. Dark fruits and spice dominate but it's the textural elegance that stands out.

Amazing syrah. Dark, concentrated fruits but also bright, floral notes. Stony and deliciously well-balanced with light to medium tannins.

Opens sweet but rounds out with a little acidity and ripe round tones with a clean finish. Moderately light and satisfying!
