Vidal-Fleury 2009 Crozes-Hermitage

Country: France /
Variety: Syrah Rhône Valley
Winery: Vidal-Fleury / Crozes-Hermitage

This is nicely floral on the nose, with black cherry fruit accented by hints of thyme and bay leaf, while the flavors are a harmonious mélange of herb, spice and ripe fruit. It’s full bodied and slightly chewy at first, turning more velvety on the finish. Drink now–2017.
