Crozes-Hermitage

Crozes-Hermitage is a wine-producing region in the northern Rhône Valley of France, known for its high-quality red wines primarily made from the Syrah grape. These wines typically exhibit flavors of dark berries, pepper, and sometimes smoky or meaty notes, with a balance of fruitiness and acidity. The area’s climate and soil contribute to wines that are vibrant, approachable, and suitable for both early drinking and aging. Crozes-Hermitage offers good value compared to its more famous neighbor, Hermitage, making it a popular choice for those seeking expressive, well-crafted Rhône wines.
