Paul Jaboulet Aîné Crozes-Hermitage Les Jalets 2015

Crozes Hermitage, Northern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceThe name ‘Jalets’ derives from ‘galets’, the Old French for the pebbles left behind by the glaciers that sit below the 25 to 35-year-old vines. The fruit is approximately 30 percent domain (including 10 percent from the single-vineyard Les Jalets and 20 percent from Domaine de Thalabert). It’s all aged in 15,000-liter, tronconique vats and upright neutral barrels. Opening with a meaty, earthy, salty cranberry nose, the attack is soft with simple, red fruit flavours. It an easy-sipping, early drinking style. Best with a savoury roasted chicken.Tasted: 10 September 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
