Maturity: 2020 - 2027
By Joe Czerwinski in 2020: "The Crozes Hermitage les Pierrelles 2018 was an excellent starting point for my visit to this exceptional estate. It is an intense wine, with notes of cedar wood and blueberries. It is full-bodied and supple, with a lush and even slightly warm finish. It should be great fun to drink in its youth".
