Honest, rustic Crozes though there are plenty other examples of N Rhône Syrah I’d choose over this, and at a better price point.

Terrific. Juicy and velvety. Very pure and suave tannins.

A touch rustic and austere at this early stage, Jaboulet’s 2018 Dom. de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage is a promising young Syrah that should improve with a few years more in bottle. Showing the heat of the vintage, the nose is reticent but shows quite heady aromas of blackcurrant, cedar and barbecued meat, with bitter coffee and dark chocolate offering some balance. There’s also a touch of iron, a welcome signpost to the varietal. The palate follows suit in quite generous fashion, with saturated black fruit, granular tannins but a reasonably supple finish. This really is a satisfying wine and, it’s worth mentioning, terrific value too. I can’t wait to try this in five to ten years’ time.

Delicious and dense. A bit over extracted? Still killer with a skirt steak.

2018 vintage. third go-round. Still super-polished and not as big as expected and that's okay. Perfect red Rhône for those that are afraid of delving into barnyard/brett, tannic, massive Rhônes. This ain't that.

2018 vintage. Smooth experience. Decent concentration. Pretty nose. Thought there might be a slight spice “lift” on the finish. Alas, no. A very polished Crozes-Hermitage.
