I can't agree more! Year after year, this wine is good, pure and fresh, regardless of the vintage... in bonus it is well priced and organically produced! -

If you enjoy this type of northern rhone syrah, I strongly recommend Francois Villard Crozes-Hermitage - Comme une Evidence which is delicious (well the '14 was and the '15 was just released).
Cheers! -

Thanks for the advice for the Pierre Gaillard "Comme une évidence" cuvée, I will try it for sure!
Cheers!
