Paul Jaboulet Aine Crozes-Hermitage Les Jalets Rouge 2022 750ml
A juicy and approachable Syrah with notes of raspberry, cherry, blueberry, and a touch of dried meat, pepper, and roasted spice. Medium-bodied with fine, silky tannins, it’s vibrant yet well balanced, showing both freshness and subtle depth. Made from organically grown vines on the stony glacial soils of Crozes-Hermitage, with fruit partly sourced from the famed Domaine de Thalabert. Delicious now, but with the structure to age. Perfect alongside grilled lamb, charcuterie, or roasted vegetables.

A deliciously fruity, vibrant northern Rhone syrah from one of the region's great names, Jaboulet. Much of the fruit comes from their vines at the renowned Domaine de Thalabert, and in this very ripe year the generous black-fruit flavour and soft tannins are already delivering real pleasure.
Vintage 2022 Tasting
Intense purple-red colour. On the nose, this organically-farmed wine is intense and fruity.
Notes of cherry, blueberry (fresh blackfruit) and delicate hints of ageing. Slightly moretannic on the palate, this wine has good ageing potential. Slightly roasted notes from ageing on the finish.
