A first for me with this producer and I was impressed. Immediate impression on the nose, after opening, almost Burgundian in its tension and clarity of fruits. After a couple of hours open, and on tasting, darker fruits, beautiful balance. No overripe flavours and no distracting oak. V nice.

Bu en succ dans le Backstore avec 5 autres Rhone Nord. Lui aussi mieux que 2016. un autre qui est fort approchable en jeunesse, c'est assez frais, des notes de fruits noir et de poivre avec un peu de viande et de toasté. Pas le plus long mais sans accroc. Le prix à 43$ pour ce Crozes, c'est rendu limite pour moi!

Découvertes en Vallée du Rhône; 4/15/2019-4/16/2019 (Ampuis, Mauves and Tain-l'Hermitage): Walk around tasting talking with the producers, brief note. Plot selection of the finest plots, raised in barrel. Black berries, olive tapenade, liqueur hints and sweet spice. Ripe while balanced with good weight and length. This will be very good young with upside and a great value, 90-91+ point potential.

Black and blue fruit, pepper, licorice (the salty one), sage and spice. Delicious and an excellent value. Cheers!
