$139.00 price per bottle
France’s Rhône Valley is home to the esteemed Crozes Hermitage appellation, and Domaine de Thalabert is one of its most historic vineyards. Owned by Maison Paul Jaboulet Aîné—founded in 1834 and revitalized under the ownership of the Frey family since 2006—the estate reflects a legacy of meticulous viticulture and terroir-driven winemaking. Domaine de Thalabert, located in the southern sector of Crozes Hermitage, is one of the oldest estate vineyards in the region, renowned for its galet-strewn soils and mature vines. Wine Description This 2021 vintage presents a deep ruby-purple hue, offering aromas of blackberries, violets, cracked pepper, and a hint of smoked meat—classic markers of Northern Rhône Syrah. On the palate, it unfolds with layers of dark plum, black cherry, and liquorice, supported by fine-grained tannins and a vibrant acidity. The wine is medium to full-bodied with a mineral core and savoury nuances that lead into a long, peppery finish. Composed entirely of Syrah, it showcases both purity and elegance, with an optimal drinking window from 2024 to 2032. The style is marked by freshness, poise, and notable ageing potential. Accolades ● Wine Spectator – 93 points. ● James Suckling – 94 points. ● Vinous – 92 points. Food Pairing Pair this Syrah with grilled lamb chops, rosemary-infused duck breast, or a rich lentil and mushroom stew. The wine’s savoury character and fine tannins make it an excellent companion for earthy and herbaceous dishes. Together, they create an unforgettable dining experience.
