Region: Norhern Rhone, France

Wine: 2000 Crozes-Hermitage, Domaine de Thalabert, Maison Paul Jaboulet Aine

Colour: Red

Grape: Syrah

Tasted in magnum. Lost a lot of colour with a wide garnet rim, and almost see through appearance. The nose is dominated by the secondary characteristics such as game, farmyard and forest floor. The palate is still fresh although not quite clean, it is very traditional in style with a lot of the red fruit now in the background. The tannins are totally integrated with a medium length finish. Drink up.
