Score 90/100 · Drink 2023-2031, Jeb Dunnuck, May 2023
Shockingly good given the difficulties in Crozes during the growing season (it rained – a lot), the 2021 Crozes-Hermitage Silene has a pretty, complex, elegant perfume of red berries, spring flowers, cedary herbs, and pepper, with some classic Northern Rhône bacon fat. Nicely textured, medium-bodied, and elegant, with good ripeness, it's a rock-solid, classic, old school-styled Crozes to enjoy over the coming 7-8 years.
