2020 Crozes-Hermitage Domaine des Grands Chemins

The color is deep, with a garnet hue deepened by violet tones. On the nose, this Crozes-Hermitage Domaine des Grands Chemins reveals seductive scents of black fruits (dark cherries, blackberries and blackcurrants) that unfold in the glass, revealing slightly smoky and liquorice notes, all of which are very typical. In the mouth, the seriousness of the wine is combined with its delicacy. The first impression is fresh and lively. The texture is tannic but intense, fleshy, almost silky. This truly balanced wine expresses a beautiful complexity, generous and true to the genuine terroir of the Domaine des Grands Chemines. The structure of this wine gives it great ageing potential.

Recommendation: An ideal accompaniment to red meat, game birds or lamb, stewed or roasted. Red meat, game birds, lamb in puff pastry. Decant 1-2 hours before serving and serve at a drinking temperature of 16-18 degrees.
