Crozes-Hermitage 2015 Domaine de Thalabert - Paul Jaboulet Aîné
93+/100 Parker
Tasting by Joe Czerwinski: ‘The 2015 Crozes Hermitage Domaine de Thalabert is a superb effort, filled with savory notes of black olives and crushed rocks. It's full-bodied and rich, with a hint of cedary oak, but there's plenty of fruit and ripe tannins on the lingering finish. Like some of Thalabert's best vintages of the past, it should drink well for twenty years or so.’
