Domaine des Lises Crozes-Hermitage Rouge Syrah, 2018

France, (Crozes-Hermitage AOC)
100% Syrah
14.5%

A more serious, round, ripe Crozes-Hermitage shows pure berry fruit notes intermixed with herb, licorice and incense characteristics. This is a very stylish wine made by Maxime Graillot, the son of iconic Crozes-Hermitage producer Alain Grailliot.

 

TASTING NOTES: Dark fruit flavors like blackberry and cherry, with notes of spice, licorice, and a hint of floral aroma; it presents a full-bodied palate with good acidity, smooth tannins, and a long, complex finish, often described as elegant and ripe with a touch of peppery spice.

 

FOOD PAIRINGS: Beef, lamb, poultry, and fatty pork.
