Score 93-95/100 · Jeb Dunnuck, Mar 2024

Cassis, fresh fig, violets, and ground pepper, as well as beautiful violet notes, all emerge from the 2022 Crozes-Ermitage Les Varonniers, a Hermitage look-alike that has medium to full-bodied richness, remarkable purity, and fine-grained, polished tannins that build on the palate. Coming from a west facing, granitic hillside just beside Hermitage Hill, this beauty will warrant 4-6 years of bottle age and my money is on it being one of the top – and longest lived – Crozes in the vintage.

Moderately intense red fruits, tangerine peel and crushed violets introduce the 2022 Crozes-Ermitage Les Varonniers. Medium-bodied and round, the 2022 delivers solid flavor concentration yet finishes a little abrupt. Let's see if the finished wine will add a little more substance.
