The M Chapoutier Crozes-Hermitage Les Meysonniers Rouge has a very intense purplish red colour. The nose exhibits red fruits, blackcurrant and raspberry, followed by violet aromas. The palate is ample and round, showing stewed fruits and vanilla flavours.
"A well-crafted, crunchy and pulpy northern syrah. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins. Juicy, crushed dark cherry character with aromas of dark cherries, wild herbs and black pepper. There is a transparent character, with a kick of spices toward the peppery finish. Drink or hold." - James Suckling, 93 points
