Domaine des Lises Crozes-Hermitage 2020
Domaine des Lises Crozes-Hermitage 2020
This Crozes-Hermitage can be drunk young 'sur les fruits' but can easily support 5 to 10 years' bottle-age in good vintages. It is a juicy, sleek Syrah wine with classic blackberry and pepper aromas and a palate of ripe plums and damsons over supple tannins.
This red Crozes-Hermitage is the brainchild of Maxime Graillot who joined his father, Alain, at Domaine Graillot in 2004, the same year that he launched Domaine des Lises with his long-time friend Thomas Schmittel. Crozes’ Domaine des Lises hails from a 6.5-hectare parcel of thirty year-old vines planted on free-draining gravel soils located south-east of the Graillot HQ, Les Chenes Verts. The vines are later harvesting than those of 'Domaine' Alain Graillot and all the fruit is de-stemmed, another difference in style. This makes the finished wine of 'des Lises' more fruit intense.
