This wine is made from 25 year old Syrah vines. Around 10% of the wine is stored on oak barrels for 10 months. 2009 is a great red wine year in France and the wine is a good example of classic Crozes Hermitage packed with brambles and hint of pepper on the nose. The taste is fruity, reflects the smell and is well balanced with a nice good length. Beautiful dark red colour with purple rim. It would probably benefit from a couple of more years in the cellar, but is drinking very well already.
