Domaine Belle
Cuvée Louis Belle Crozes-Hermitage Syrah
Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Full of juicy black fruit with aroma of blackberry, black cherry, plum, bay leaf, and a wonderful earthy character with hints of violet and leather. Just beginning to show some tertiary character. Vibrant on the palate with great freshness as well as a long finish. Soft, ripe tannins - ready to go now but should last for several more years (though I’ll consume it before then!)

Can't really rate it. It's an '04 that was cooked. That having been said, still has a little nice umph to it!
