November 26, 2022 - Fruit day, served with dry-aged steak and roasted vegetables. 1hr decant.
Nose: White pepper, clove, black olive and meaty, this nose is wonderfully savoury with a subtle hint of blackberry in the background.
Palate: Slightly juicer on the palate with blueberry on the front followed by olive stem, clove, and bitter espresso grounds (DF1962 spot on there). After tasting I definitely get more violet here too, both on nose and palate.
Overall I'm absolutely a fan of this one, especially at the price. Though I'll admit it leaves you wanting just a tad more complexity, it's a wonderful expression of Syrah and is in brilliant balance, with soft but lively tannins and definitely suggests further development is possible (and likely).
91 points with potential for 1...maybe 2 points more. Great Crozes here! -

September 13, 2022 - Nice expression of Syrah showcasing the appellation well. Classic savory notes mingle with dark fruits and a pepper finish. Drink now and over the next 5 years

December 28, 2021 - PnD let air for 2hrs.
Consistent with previous note may have been too enthusiastic in the course of the evening. Huge floral elements. Lovely ripe tannins nice fruit touch of espresso. Grippy finish. Lots of life ahead. Definite re-buy. -

Huge nose of cherry violets lavender and fennel. Grippy black tea palate with cherry fennel garrigue and violet.
Young with lots of life. Getting some more.
