Last night, my friend Jeff decided to pull some treasures from the cellar; 1990 Hermitage. He invited some friends over and we all brought some other bottles to join in. The wines were put into flights, and consumed, mostly non-blind over a few hours. Sadly, two of the 90's were corked. Still, we had a great time drinking the other wines. It reminded me that Crozes is really a source for value especially in the great vintages.
Thanks to Jeff for opening his home and cellar. Thanks to all for bringing some nice wines as well. It was a lot of fun.

I am told this costs about $13. Great QPR. Really a nice wine that was great at the end of the night as well. Light silver gold in color. The nose is citrusy with slight honey and waxy notes. Very nice oily texture. Orange/citrus on the palate. Great acidity. Long finish. We all liked this very much.
