Today I'm turning the tables. Instead of just writing stuff for you all to read, how about a little reciprocity? For starters, I doubt that you noticed, but resolution #5 on my list of New Year's resolutions reads as follows:

'10 Equinoxe Crozes Hermitage? Read More
April 2013
This Delas Crozes Hermitage is lightish with a leathery prune, rye flour and cranberry (acidic fruit) nose. The body is medium with modest structure - though the balance is good and the fresh acidity is palate-cleansing. A good wine for lighter meats or on the patio. Drink now through 2015. 87 points.

For March, my tasting group explored the length of the Rhône valley. Probably for consistency of quality, one of our best tastings to date with just about all o the wines showing well and being universally liked by all. I was lucky to find/have access to some older vintages from estate sales and store cellars, so it made for a fun night. Here... Read More

Tar, incense, pepper with black and purple fruit on the nose. Hints of blueberry. Some herbs and smoke. Herbal notes on the palate with black and purple fruits accented by blue fruits. Sage. Light pepper. Meaty and has a savory finish. Lots of roasty, smoky tones. 90 pts.3/9/13 Read More

The 2010 Crozes-Hermitage Domaine Mucyn is an outstanding, as well as reasonably priced, effort exhibiting plenty of dense black currant fruit, licorice, roasted herb, new saddle leather and spice box characteristics. Medium to full-bodied and ripe with good acidity as well as lingering, light tannins, it should drink nicely for a decade. 90/10... Read More

The nose showed cherries in fresh turned soil, with notes of undergrowth, candle wax, minerals and floral stems. On the palate it was lean, showing tight blackberry fruit, herbs and hints of stone. The finish was long, with red fruits clinging on the mid-palate. This wine closed in on itself and took six hours, open in bottle, to really show its... Read More

Rich and spicy on the nose with dark brambly fruit and incipient notes of black pepper, leather, violets and wood smoke all over a nice crushed granite base note. On entry, this is big and smooth with very fine, polished tannins and solid acidity keeping the broad palate impression lively and supporting sweet and sour wild berry fruit. The tanni... Read More
