Crozes Hermitage 'Les Jalets' comes from 6 hectares of vineyard, on a stony plain of glacial origin. Its name comes from the word 'jalets' which is the Old French word for the pebbles left by alpine glaciers, as can be found at Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Attractive bright ruby with a violet hue, aromas of red berries and spices follow through to a palate which is smooth and rich, finishing with liquorice notes.

"Violet and smoky bacon aromas, offering a lighter style of Syrah on the palate. Good length, lively acidity, black and red fruit blend in a wine for sipping with spicey bangers on an autumnal evening."
