Order wine : Crozes-Hermitage La Guiraude 2023 - Alain Graillot
From the estate
95/100 James Suckling
This Crozes-Hermitage La Guiraude is distinguished by its elegant structure and complex aromatic layers. It reveals notes of spicy berries, warm herbs, baking spices, as well as subtle nuances of undergrowth and bark. Medium-bodied, it has fine, firm tannins, offering density and texture with a solid framework that supports the palate. The finish is flavorful, slightly peppery, and very long. Best enjoyed from 2027 onwards to fully appreciate its maturity.
Serving Suggestions
To reveal its full complexity, serve at 16-18°C and allow it to breathe for 30 to 60 minutes in a decanter. It pairs perfectly with red meats, game, dishes with sauces, or aged cheeses, but is also elegant enough to accompany a celebratory meal or a tasting among wine lovers. Use wide red wine glasses to release all its aromas and enjoy its richness and finesse.
