Expert Opinion
In the press...
Andrew Neather - Evening Standard 05/04/2012Of the 2008 vintage, Andrew Neather said: “The northern Rhone’s syrahs are the inevitable point of comparison for many of the syrahs now emerging from cooler climate parts of the New World. This is a classic peppery, brambly Crozes from the ever-reliable Tain ‘Hermitage co-op: a good effort in a difficult vintage.”

Excellent wine for the price a smooth yet spicey finish to a flavourful red that goes with a light dinner that can insist of richer meats such as lamb/game

This review is for the 2009 vintage
Smooth full bodied with a hint of berry fruit, not a strong after taste. Ideal with cheese
