Equinoxe Crozes-Hermitage Syrah
Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Opened up to breathe for an hour. Nose of soil and meat, with a hint of black pepper. Silky smooth. OMG. Wow does that go down easily. Jammy black fruits, and thick in the mouth. Unctuous and creamy. Love love love

This wine is chock full of juicy, ripe blackberry, black cherry, blueberry, red plum, and strawberry notes, violet, leather, and soft tannins.
Winemaker Maxime Graillot is the son of the revered Northern Rhône winemaker — Alain Graillot — who passed away in March of this year. Surely his father left an indelible imprint on Maxime’s winemaking, and his commitment to quality, which he will carry forward.
This style of Syrah reflects youth, innovation, and a personality of its own that is so approachable, textural, and delicious; it would make a great choice for any holiday gathering. A crowd pleaser.
We chose this wine to pair with roasted chicken and it’s lovely.

This is odd.. sour cranberry flavors, slightly effervescent. Bad winemaking? Thought I found northern Rhône at a good price but it was too good to be true!

Crunchy Croze « on the fruit ». Open nose, soft and fresh mouth with a nice volume typical of fairly natural wines. Beautiful, soft shades support the primary explosive notes of black, purple, iris, peppery and smoked fruits. Immediate pleasure, very greedy. Very nice wine to share as early as the aperitif.
Croze croquant sur le fruit. Nez ouvert, bouche souple et fraîche avec un beau volume typique des vins assez natures. De belles nuances réglissées, soutiennent les notes explosives primaires de fruits noirs, violette, iris, poivrées et fumées. Plaisir immédiat, très gourmand. Vin très sympa à partager dès l’apéro.
