2022 Clos des Cessieux

Domaine romaneaux Destezet is a favorite of mine, but this is the first time I've tried this particular wine.

Color: Deep Purple, bright and intense

Smell: Classic Black Olive tapenade leaps out of the glass, with lavender, black plum, subtle hints of leather, and bacon fat. Down right luxurious.

Structure: despite being 100% whole cluster the tannins are extremely fine and very well incorporated. The acidity matches the wine perfectly and I would say the wine strikes an incredible balance.

It's a treat to drink North Rhone Syrah that performs well young. A beautiful wine and great way to protect my cellar.
