Description

Jean-Claude Marsanne, Syrah, Crozes-Hermitage, Northern Rhône, France 2022100% Syrah Jean Claude and his two daughters produce not only exquisite Saint Josephs but also this sublime Crozes Hermitage from a small but ideally situated plot of 50 year old vines that Jean Claude inherited from his grandmother.

This textbook northern Rhne Syrah is perfectly suited to fall roasts and winter stews.
