Pierre Jean Villa Crozes-Hermitage Rouge Accroche Cœur 2023

Pierre Jean Villa Crozes-Hermitage Rouge Accroche Cœur 2023Pierre launched his domaine in 2009 after years of hands on experience across the region, and his wines reflect that deep familiarity with place. His Crozes Hermitage Accroche Cur (literally heart catcher) is exactly that: soulful, expressive Syrah thats honest, vibrant, and wildly drinkable. No scores, no hypejust a wine that punches well above its weight and reminds you why Northern Rhne reds are so endlessly compelling. This is the bottle I keep

Named for the guards that continuously watched over the Spanish Catholic Monarchy

rich blue fruits in the blend come from Bonny’s Vineyard on the northern border of the Oakville nested appellation

I’m on board with that

wild fruit and herbal undertones to open up

silky finish
