Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Black cherry, raspberry, violets, white pepper, and my favorite---burnt rubber. Lots of dusty herb aromas. Balanced and comfortable.

Jan 27th, 2017didn't snag a pic but had this BTG tonight. Easier to drink than I expected. Evolving herbal, spice and fruit aromas. Not a very "heavy" wine for being on the "full (serious)" part of the list. Quite a nice find for a #winewednesday
