2017 J. Denuzière Crozes-Hermitage, France, Rhone, Wine Review
This is a very nice Syrah from the Northern Rhone Valley. Purple in color, ruby at the rim, mostly opaque and bright. The nose has boysenberries, roasted meats, slight floral tones and spices. Medium to full bodied. Medium tannins. Good acidity. On the palate, this is more middle of the road in style for a Syrah. Flavors of black raspberries with some roasted meats and minerality. Nice finish. Nice on its own, this will be a bit better with food. It would work well with burgers or ribs off the grill. Drink over the next five to seven years.
