Delas Frères
Domaine des Grands Chemins Crozes-Hermitage Syrah
Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
100% Syrah, 13% abv, de-stemmed, maturing for 14 months: partial in tank and partial in Burgundian small barrels. Dusty, mineral and chalky with black cherry, blackberry, fig, dried dark fruit, slightly gamey with savory herbal note. Didn't open up after an hour in the glass. A masculine, well structured Syrah. Could age for another 5-10 years.

2009 vintage nice earthiness buttressed by bright fruit in the background, pepper, and subtle licorice. Drinking well now. Open and consume in 1 hour. Very good.

Jun 13th, 2015Popped and sampling over 3 hours. Awkward period over the first 20 minutes, then opened up with muted fruits, cedar, and leather. Drink your 2009 now.

Jun 1st, 2015Unfortunately, this bottle was corked. We'll be having another soon to find out what it's supposed to taste like.

All I can say is this wine tastes so much like Brie cheese. I love that it is different and idk like it quite a bit. Also my first Crozes Hermitage
