Francois Villard Crozes-Hermitage Certitude 750ml

Vintage: 2021
Description: A racy, high-toned version, with a stream of licorice, red currant and baked cherry flavors that are glossy on the midweight palate. Reveals singed garrigue, smoke and pepper details, with mouthwatering acidity driving through. Drink now through 2028. 3,000 cases made, 91 cases imported. From three sites on the Plateau de Chassis in the village of Mercurol. In the shadow of Hermitage, the land opens up here and there are many fruit orchards alongside the vineyards. Away from the famous steep slopes, the terroir is a mix of sandy clay and round river stones (galets roules). 100% whole-cluster fermentation, followed by eighteen months of aging in five- to six-year-old barrels. Lush fruit and gentle tannins.
