  This was my last bottle. A wine that has given immense pleasure, excellent qpr. Syrah through and through and mellow. An old friend, it had lost its exuberance, but then maybe so have I to a degree. Vale.

  Super canon tout de même: un crozes qui tient les 12 années sans faiblir, arborant une fraicheur, une complexité, un tel caractère, c'est beau!
  Nez viandé, un tout petit peu floral (violette), légèrement fruité (mûre, cassis, pruneau), mentholé et épicé, un poil végétal (poivron, olive verte) et tapenade, il est typique d'une -bonne- vieille syrah de derrière les fagots; en bouche, il a gardé du peps et se montre dynamique, et même si la matière manque de finesse (il est un rien pointu), sa fraicheur et son aromatique en font le bon compagnon d'un civet de chevreuil.
  Il est au top actuellement, servi a 16/17º, et passé en carafe.

  Mature, with a full body and smooth texture with a little tannins and acidity left. Very good

  Still very young in color, with quite a bit of acidity. Very nice and can comfortably rest for five more years in the cellar
