Tasting Notes

93
Vinous Josh Raynolds - 01 Apr 20
Saturated ruby. Intense cherry and blackberry scents, along with hints of pipe tobacco, cola and baking spices. Juicy and energetic in the mouth, offering concentrated cherry, blueberry and spicecake flavors that turn sweeter on the back half. Sneaky, rounded tannins build steadily on an impressively long, spice-accented finish that leaves behind suggestions of mocha and candied flowers.
Drinking Date: 2023 - 2032

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Joe Czerwinski - 31 Jan 20
While the 2017 Crozes Hermitage Cuvee Gaby shows a bit more intensity and structure (along with a touch more mocha-scented oak), it's essentially similar to the regular Crozes, with a nice balance of fruity and savory characters: black cherries and plums balanced by asphalt and black olives. Full-bodied and velvety, it should be able to age up to a decade from the vintage.
Drinking Date: 2019 - 2026
Rhone Vineyard Valley of Fine Wine

Rhone

The Rhône Valley in southeastern France is famed for its diverse wines. It's divided into Northern Rhône, known for Syrah-based reds and white wines from Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne, and Southern Rhône, which features blends like Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. Northern Rhône wines, such as Côte-Rôtie and Hermitage, are intense and complex, while Southern Rhône's Châteauneuf-du-Pape is known for powerful, spicy reds. Top producers include E. Guigal, Domaine du Pegau, and Domaine Jean-Louis Chave, exemplifying the region's rich winemaking tradition.
