I loved the 2018 Crozes-Hermitage, which is similar to the 2017 yet offers a touch more purity of fruit. Blackberries, black raspberries, smoked game, and earth all emerge from this medium to full-bodied effort that’s going to shine right out of the gate.
Wine Enthusiast
Drops of blackberry candy and violet perfume announce this ebulliently fruity, forward Syrah. Cassis and black-cherry flavors are intensely ripe yet pristine, elevated by subtle streaks of granite, smoke and licorice. Soft and silky on the palate, the wine is irresistible young but should hold nicely through 2028.
Loaded with upfront blueberries and cherries, the 2018 Crozes Hermitage is medium to full-bodied, pleasantly plump and generous in the mouth. It's ripe and silky, with a soft wash of dusty tannins on the finish. Your perfect hamburger wine for the next few years?
