2006 Ferraton Pere & Fils, Crozes-Hermitage, Le Grand Courtil 1x750ml

Vinous 89

Bright ruby. Complex bouquet of smoky cherry, cassis, violet and tobacco. Pliant and sweet, with deep dark berry preserve flavors, gentle tannins and exotic notes of chewing tobacco and candied flowers. With its gentle mineral lift and very soft tannins, this is open for business right now. [Josh Raynolds, 01/01/2009]
