2012 Crozes-Hermitage Le Clos, Delas Frères

2012 Crozes-Hermitage Le Clos, Delas Frères

“The 2012 Le Clos is inky purple in color and exhibits classic violets, licorice, liquid rock and copious black and blue-styled fruits on the nose. Medium to full-bodied, rich and textured, with an overall forward, mouth filling feel and sweet tannin, it should be approachable on release and dish out loads of pleasure over the coming decade.” 90- 93 points, Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate, December 2013

With an impressive female winemaker, Claire Darnaud, at the helm since 2010 (though with experience there dating back to 1996), and considerable investment in the cellar to move to the historic town centre, the wines here are some of the more refined in the region. Careful never to use more than 40% new oak, Claire is a master of her craft.
