Yann Chave, Crozes-Hermitage, Le Rouvre, 2007
Le Rouvre, named after a type of sessile oak, comes from parcels of old vines on the very stony fields at Les Chassis, and is a very serious, mineral wine for ageing. Already so lovely: elegant and well balanced, with very supple tannins. So approachable, with intense cherry, mulberry and blackberry fruit with spice and herbs plus a touch of black pepper on the very long finish. Enticing. Now-2016
