Hailing from the sun-drenched slopes of the Rhône Valley, the 2020 Vidal Fleury Crozes Hermitage Rouge is a true gem. Earning a commendable 95 points, this wine is a testament to the exquisite terroir of the region. It bursts with a vibrant medley of ripe blackberry, cherry, and subtle earthy undertones, culminating in a well-structured, long finish. The palate is beautifully balanced, a parade of lush fruit and delightful minerality that reflects the richness of its origin. Whether you’re planning a cozy dinner or a celebratory gathering, this wine pairs beautifully with a hearty beef bourguignon or a simple, well-aged cheddar. At a marked-down price from its original retail value, it delivers well beyond its peers, making it a smart buy for discerning wine lovers.
