About the wine:
More concentrated than this producer's other Crozes, the Crozes Hermitage la Chasseliere 2020 is a magnificent piece of work, packed with black cherry and blackberry fruit, all underpinned by notes of black olive, peppery spice and licorice. It's medium to full-bodied but not over- or over-extracted, with a rich, velvety, almost creamy mouthfeel and a long, long finish. Tasted twice (once blind), with consistent notes.
