Domaine Michelas-St. Jemms
Crozes-Hermitage Syrah
Pot roast braising wine - prefect. Clearly Rhone, more about earth and structure than fruit. Not a ton of complexity, but true to type.

White rhones are cool! Great little value. Tons of honey suckle, oxidative nuttyness and PEAR. Pretty much tastes like it's made of pear! Marsanne & Rousanne.

Feb 26th, 2014Interesting wine. Needed 2 hours of decanting. When it opened up it had a dark dry fruit taste, some pepper and an aged edge. Not much depth but had the purity characteristic for a Northern Rhône.

Dec 31st, 2017100% head banging Syrah! An excellent food wine, tightly woven tannins, a blaze of acid, high toned red, dark fruits and a long caressing finish!
