Note di degustazione
Crafted from old vines (65 years old) in the appellation's southern part, the 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Le Rouvre exudes aromas of spices, licorice, dark berries and a lovely touch of oak. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and supple, it's clean and pure with a fleshy core of fruit, an enrobing palate and a long, spicy and suave finish. Matured in a combination of used large barrels from Taransaud and Seguin Moreau, this wine is a gem worth seeking out, and it's poised to age gracefully over the next decade.

The 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Le Rouvre was vinified from fully destemmed, certified organic grapes. Meaty subtleties mingle with touches of cedar and black cherry on the complex aromatic profile. Engaging the palate with elevated flavor concentration and solid freshness, the savory 2022 requires at least two more years to show its full potential. This is a delicious Crozes from Yann Chave.
The smaller production 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Le Rouvre is a selection of older vines from the Les Chassis region of Crozes. Not yet bottled, it has more cassis, violet, pepper, and graphite-driven aromatics and is medium to full-bodied on the palate, with fine tannins, nicely integrated acidity, and the density and depth to benefit from 3-4 years of bottle age and evolve nicely over the following decade.
Certified organic (FR-BIO-01). Cask sample. Tasted blind. The nose is bright with lavender and dark fruits. Nice freshness and taut tannins with good energy and vibrancy. Not hugely complex but enjoyable, ripe and with good freshness. (AC)
