Graillot Crozes Hermitage 2020
$99
“The 2020 in Crozes shines with its balance and the beautiful burst of fruit, all in smoothness and indulgence, but with a lot of background. If it is difficult to resist it, it is perfectly capable of waiting a few years in the cellar. An admirable classic.” 93 points, La Revue du Vins de France
“Saturated magenta. Displays expressive red and dark berry, smoked meat, olive and floral qualities on the spice-accented nose. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, offering gently sweet cherry-cola, blackberry and baking spice flavors that show fine detail and a mineral, back-end lift. Finishes very long and subtly chewy, with repeating smokiness, harmonious tannins and strong persistence.” 92 points, Josh Raynolds, Vinous
