Crozes Hermitage 2018 - Cuvée 1920 - Gilles Robin
From the estate
93+/100 Parker
Cellaring : 2023 - 2035
Tasted by Joe Czerwinski in May 2021: "Made from vines planted in 1956 and aged in new demi-muids, the 2018 Crozes Hermitage 120 offers enticing scents of black currants and blackberries on the nose, complemented by notes of cedar shavings, crushed rocks, and dried spices. Medium to full-bodied, with firm but ripe tannins and a long, complex finish, this is a fine Crozes. More intense and structured than the Alberic, it deserves to be cellared for a few years, then consumed over the next decade."
- Grape variety : Syrah 100%.
- The cuvée : coming from 60 years old vines, from the terroirs of the Domaine Robin, the blend plays on early ripening Syrah. Moreover the result of a parcel selection of the oldest vines, 1920 is always from a noble and great origin.
- Anecdote : Provided with the exceptional resources of a great terroir, this great Crozes-Hermitage wine is only made in high potential vintages. The 1920 vintage benefited from grapes of perfect maturity and excellent concentration. With a breeding of 18 months.
