Crozes Hermitage, Domaine des Lises (Maxime Graillot) 2022

Tasting Notes

2022 was very warm and dry, but at the end this came in with 12% alcohol. For many years they have been harvesting earlier, even in August and what this has given the vines is two months with leaves without any grapes so this could be helping with more even maturity. The vines are healthy until the beginning of November. Except in 2024. Concentrated and dense with grippy tannins under the sweet black fruits, with just a hint of pepper and meat. Brooding with gravel and graphite, with some energy, and a long future ahead of it, perhaps.
