A harmonious, round and textural Crozes-Hermitage. Aromas of dark cherries, dried herbs, cassis and violets on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannin and a vivid core of peppercorns through the palate. A caressing texture combines with the lively, spicy character of the mid-palate. Precise and pure. More compact in the finish. Try from 2025.

Polished and stylish, with a winey core of red currant enrobed in well-integrated notes of oak spice and toasty cedar. A spine of iron keeps this bolt upright and drives the length, guided by refined tannins. Displays concentration and earthy depth. Drink now through 2030. 268 cases imported.
