Domaine du Colombier Crozes-Hermitage 2014
SKU
OOS-162_1
100% Syrah. Crozes-Hermitage, just around the bend and over the hill from Hermitage, is known for wines that are a bit wilder than its more famous neighbor. Classic Crozes rusticity: get deep red fruits, bacon fat, charred meat, black tea tannins and a stiff acid spine. Spicy black peppercorn finish. No oak: a very pure expression of Rhone Syrah. Slow-roasted pork shoulder would be a mighty fine pairing.
