2020 Crozes Hermitage “Gervans”

Barruol / Lynch
Discount Eligible $42.00
SOLD OUT

Gervans is one of the great sites in the vast appellation of Crozes-Hermitage with steep hillside vineyards that benefit from cooling breezes. From here, Barruol vinifies a classic northern Rhône Syrah–supple and luscious with satisfying heft. Full of finesse, it opens into black cherry fruits and plentiful violet, soft leather notes playing around the edges. Sure, you could pair it with a fat-capped ribeye, but why not try a more playful approach with this bottle that’s simultaneously serious-drinking and ready-to-go? A board of saucisson and cheeses such as d’Affinois or Brebirousse will do quite nicely.

Terroirs

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
