Alain Graillot Crozes-Hermitage 2018 - Northern Rhône, France
From one of the Northern Rhône’s most celebrated names, this Crozes-Hermitage exhibits the signature synergy of terroir and Syrah: dark fruit, spice, smoke and mineral-driven freshness. The 2018 vintage is dense and concentrated - deep plum, blackberry and dark cherry mingle with olive tapenade, cracked pepper, smoked meat and a whiff of violets.
On the palate, it shows full body and rich texture, with velvety tannins, bracing acidity and a savoury, slightly smoky finish. A classic Rhône red with both immediacy and enough structure for short-to medium-term aging.
