About this wine
Yann Chave's Crozes Hermitage is a wine that speaks to the soul of the Northern Rhône. This is the kind of bottle you reach for when you want something honest and beautifully crafted, without pretension.
The 2022 vintage shows the classic character of Syrah from this region. Dark berries and black pepper jump out first, followed by hints of herbs and a subtle earthiness that reminds you of the granite slopes where these vines grow. The palate is elegant and balanced, with smooth tannins that feel natural and integrated. There's a freshness here that makes you want another sip.
Serve this wine slightly cool, around 15 to 16 degrees Celsius, to really let those peppery notes shine. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, game, or hearty stews. Think roasted lamb, beef daube, or even a good quality saucisse. If you're keeping it in your cellar, this wine will develop nicely over the next five to eight years, but it's also delicious to drink now. A mid-range wine that gives you real value and genuine pleasure.
