Crozes Hermitage Les Malfondières 2018 - François Villard
92/100 WS
Tasting note: "Smooth and pure, with a nice cluster of blackcurrant and plum fruit paste with a hint of black tea surrounding it. A subtle iron note runs underneath and leaves a mouthwatering sensation on the finish, which shows a judicious toast, letting the fruit play. Drink now through 2027. 318 cases made"- JM
The elegance of François Villard
François Villard's Crozes-Hermitage Les Malfondières is a magnificent expression of Syrah.From the Crozes-Hermitage appellation, this wine seduces with its depth and aromatic intensity.On the nose, it reveals notes of ripe black fruits, violets and pepper, accompanied by a smoky, slightly spicy touch.On the palate, the balance between freshness and structure is long-lasting, with silky tannins and a delicious finish.This wine is certified organic, respecting the authenticity of its terroir.
Pairing, serving and ageing potential
To fully appreciate Les Malfondières, we recommend serving it between 16 and 18°C after light aeration.This Crozes-Hermitage is the ideal accompaniment to a fine piece of red meat, duck breast or a spicy sauce dish.With its structured character and evolutionary potential, it can be cellared for 5 to 8 years, gaining in complexity and elegance.
