Domaine la Guintrandy Blanchelaine Crozes-Hermitage, Rhone Valley, France.

Domaine la Guintrandy “Blanchelaine” Crozes-Hermitage is a Northern Rhône Syrah noted for a classic, savoury style rather than heavy oak or jammy fruit. It typically shows aromas of blackberries, cassis, violet, cracked pepper, liquorice, and a faint smoky/meaty character that is very characteristic of Crozes-Hermitage Syrah. On the palate, it is medium-to-full bodied with fresh acidity, fine tannins, and a long peppery finish.
