Cave de Tain Crozes-Hermitage Nobles Rives 2023

This Syrah-based wine has a really impressive nose. It is a very young wine with lovely minerality, red fruit, rich graphite, loam, smoke, roasted meat, tar, and black pepper.

The mouth of this medium-plus-bodied wine is nice; it has great acidity with nice black plum, raspberry, tart blueberry, smoke, good tannin, and black pepper; balanced, with lovely fruit focus and structure, nice!

The finish is long, ripe, balanced, with bright fruit, tar, smoke, roasted meat, and minerality.
