"The 1989 Crozes-Hermitage is a dazzling wine . . . . Its ruby/purple color, sweet bouquet of vanillin-scented new oak, roasted fruit (particularly cassis and black plums), excellent extract, rich, full-bodied, brilliantly focused palate impression, and super length make it a delicious bottle of Crozes-Hermitage."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
