Note di degustazione
Tasted blind. Polished crimson. Ripe fruit – especially riper than the previous wine of this pair tasted blind (Trinity Hill, Homage Syrah 2018). Sweet start but by no means heavy. Limpid and savoury on the end. More emphatic than the previous wine and thoroughly noble in its intentions. There is some complexity here and it will grow into a very fine wine indeed. (JR)

Surprising oak scent on the nose, lots of vanilla and rich spice. After Clape Cornas 2012, this seems very tame and mild. It isn't the most energising Chave I've tasted, but it also has the substance to give more with time. (RH)
Stunning nose, plump forest fruit, a touch of reductive peppery character and violets, smoke – so inviting. Rounded palate with firm seductive tannins, opulent but also with such precision and detail. Already drinking well, despite its firm nature – excellent acidity keeps it driven towards the meaty, biltong- and forest-fruit-laden finish – very long. (AC)
