2021 Vidal-Fleury Crozes-Hermitage

92 Points from Wine Enthusiast Magazine: "Aromas of dark plums, blueberries, blackberry, violets, crispy bacon and freshly picked thyme fill the glass. The palate is fresh and enveloped by flavors of pomegranate, rhubarb, plums and blackberries. With its polished tannins, the wine becomes juicier with aeration, making it easy to enjoy now."

From Wine Spectator: "A light, perfumed red, with dried potpourri and red plum flavors layered with singed lard, wet stone and mesquite ash. Smoky and just a bit short at the end. Drink now through 2027. 250 cases imported." (12/25/23)

From Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2021 Crozes-Hermitage has a pretty, perfumed nose of black raspberries, spring flowers, and hints of pepper in its medium-bodied, juicy, easygoing, elegant style. It's not concentrated and layered, but it’s certainly enjoyable." (3/28/24)
