Wine from Crozes Hermitage
Filter
Crozes Hermitage is a French wine region located in the Northern Rhone Valley. Crozes Hermitage produces nearly 70,000 hl of wine, which is more than the combined production of all seven of the additional Rhone regions. Most of Crozes Hermitage wines are red, with only about ten percent of production being Blanc. The Crozes Hermitage reds are mainly produced from Syrah, while the Blancs are produced from Marsanne and Roussane. Crozes Hermitage wines are commonly less complex than that of the Hermitage region due to the lush soil, which can inhibit the roots from extending and deepening, and therefore detract from grape growth. There is relatively low sunshine and little air currents in the Crozes Hermitage region, which can create a braised flavor in wine produced there. There are several different terroirs in Crozes Hermitage, which offers a wider selection of wines from which to choose. The Northern area has a granite bedrock, which can hold on to heat a bit longer and create a full and multifaceted style of wine. The Eastern area is more clay and limestone soils, while the area to the South has sandy, grainy soils. Because these areas don’t receive as much sunshine with more difficult soils, the wines produced there have less ability to age, but can be offered at a better value.

Hailing from 1937, these certified organic vines are some of the most unique we’ve ever seen. Just a mile and a half from the Napa border on the Sonoma side of the Mayacamas, located in what is the new Moon Mountain AVA, the vines are planted along steep, contoured terraces. Finding old vineyards is rare enough, but ancient hillside head-trained vines located 1000 feet up? Downright extraordinary.
Review:
"The 2022 Zinfandel Fredericks Vineyard is medium to deep ruby in the glass. It opens slowly but steadily with multifaceted aromas of peach skin, dried red berries, dark spices, wafts of cooling botanicals and a lifted, vibrant floral perfume. The full-bodied palate is suave, concentrated and polished, hiding rustic but gentle tannins and seamless, mineral-tinged acidity with its long, perfumed finish. As with much of the 2022 Turley Zinfandels, this should unwind and come into itself after 3-5 years in bottle and provide more than a decade of enjoyment in the cellar."
