2012 Domaine Champal Crozes Hermitage Chaubayou $156 6pack Classic Northern Rhone Syrah made by Eric Rocher. The biodiversity of Rocher’s high altitude St Joseph estate enables strictly non-interventionist viticulture and the low-yielding vines reach deep into the granite soils, producing classic flavors of black olive and gamey meats. The Crozes Hermitage is silky in texture with a chiseled frame. All hand-harvested grapes fermented by indigenous yeasts. |
