Note di degustazione
Inky ruby. Powerful smoke- and spice-accented aromas of fresh blueberry, olive paste and violet carry a smoky mineral overtone. Juicy and focused, showing very good depth and energy to the dark berry and floral pastille flavors, which are sharpened by a jolt of peppery spices. Smoothly pairs power and finesse, and finishes long and smoky, with repeating dark berry character and fine-grained tannins that sneak in late.

Sharing lots of similarities to the straight Crozes Hermitage, the limited production 2013 Crozes Hermitage la Guiraude has a touch more ripeness and density in its plum, licorice, smoked meats and olive brine-driven bouquet. This gives way to a full-bodied 2013 that has solid mid-palate depth, plenty of texture and a great finish. A selection of the top barrels (not destemmed and aged all in older oak), it too will evolve gracefully for a decade.
Dark purple. A deeply perfumed bouquet evokes ripe black and blue fruits, olive, licorice pastille and potpourri, with a mineral element adding lift. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, offering sweet boysenberry and candied violet flavors given spine and lift by juicy acidity. Shows excellent focus and energy on the penetrating finish, with dusty, slow-building tannins adding firm grip and focus.
