@Chris MacLean, these bottles, particularly the “La Guiraude”, will develop for 30-35 years in the best vintages (I posted on a 1990 La Guiraude within the past year. Alain made great Crozes-Hermitage, it sounds like his sons have kept up the quality of the wines!!

9.1

Fruit and earth and heme and amazing tannins and just a hint of Brett. Quite lovely though. Could certainly have aged longer but I didn’t feel like waiting. — 5 months ago

La Démarrante Vin de Pays de la Vallée du Paradis Red Blend 2021

La Guiraude Crozes-Hermitage Syrah 1990

Original price tag, this Crozes-Hermitage is really remarkable (I believe La Guiraude is a special cuvée?), meaty, smoky, classic aged French Syrah, long finish, amazingly this was the most ready to drink of these wines I’ve been posting tonight, and the favorite of at least one of our 6 tasters tonight!! With all that said, if anyone has bottles of this wine, it’s fully mature. — 5 months ago
