The 2020 Crozes-Hermitage Domaine De Thalabert is terrific as well. Coming from old vines in the Chassis region, it has a darker ruby/purple hue as well as classic Thalabert black and blue fruits, black olive, smoke, and ground pepper. Medium to full-bodied, it offers fine tannins, nicely integrated acidity, and a great finish. It will evolve for over two decades.
Pure and lifted with the aroma of fresh, berry fruit. Less dense than imagined but pure, fresh and juicy with extremely fine-grained tannins. Refined and almost approachable but history says it will age. 2024-2032
The 2020 Crozes Hermitage Domaine de Thalabert boasts effusive aromas of cracked pepper, black olives, cherries and blueberries. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers some soft dusty tannins and decent length, but it's surprisingly lacking in concentration.
Bright purple in colour. The nose is incredibly floral, matching blossom, violet, and sweet blue fruit together with a good grind of fresh pepper. The palate is crunchy, with an almost zesty brightness. The pedigree is evident here, red and black fruits intermingle in a wine that is both approachable and deep. A style of finesse and purity, the finish is all pepper, blue fruit and silk.
