Darnaud Crozes Hermitage Les Trois Chenes 2007
Lovely, ethereal, floral aromas are tethered to ripe red fruit anchored by a mineral complexity. Harmony in a glass, it seems almost eager to charm its way out of the cellar but Darnaud's Les Trois Chènes is fully prepared by structuring tannins and a juicy acidity to lead a long and generous life. If only one could keep their mitts off of it!

Okay. Worth the sale price, not the full price.

Focused and pure, with lovely plum, black cherry and violet notes laced with a graphite underpinning. The finish is long and alluring. An impressive effort for the vintage.

Winged beasties with dark meat like duck, goose, squab, and griffins. Hooved game. Roasted meats.
