Domaine Vincent Paris Selection Crozes-Hermitage 2022

“Deep, glistening violet. Primary black/blue fruits, black pepper, smoked meat and a hint of licorice on the incisive nose. Juicy and energetic on the palate, offering bitter cherry, blackberry and spicecake flavors that take a sweeter turn on the back half. Shows just a hint of silky tannins on the persistent finish, which leaves zesty dark berry and spice notes behind. This wine is made from fruit that Paris sources from the river-stone laden soils of Chassis, in the southern sector of the appellation. 91 points Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media (Previous vintage)
