Laurent Habrard - Crozes-Hermitage - red 2022

The cuvée les Pends du Domaine des Entrefaux has superb substance. This organic wine produced on the Crozes-Hermitage terroir deserves a few years of cellaring to develop its full complexity. It develops notes of black fruit and pepper: a lovely, racy bottle that awaits a woodcock over a wood fire or, more simply, a fine piece of meat with pepper.

The Clos des Grives blanc du Domaine Combier cuvée is a grand blanc de gastronomie from the Rhone Valley. Rare and ambitious, this cuvée possesses beautiful chewiness and plenty of freshness. It reveals woody, white and yellow fruit notes. A long, lingering finish!

In a very fine vintage, the cuvée domaine du Domaine Combier is another great success. The wine is powerful, racy, spicy, with notes of black fruit and pepper. Soft but voluminous on the palate. A great organic wine to accompany dishes in sauce or red meats, for example.

The cuvée Cours de Récré from domaine François Villard is a superb white Crozes-hermitage. This wine develops lemony notes on the nose; on the palate its citrus and exotic fruit aromas will whet your taste buds. Finishes on honey and apricot!
