This Gilles Robin Papillon Crozes-Hermitage is a stunningly complex Syrah-based red blend. On the nose, it presents aromas of roasted coffee, freshly cracked black pepper, and ripe blackberry. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine is juicy and spicy, with flavors of dark cherry, smoke, and licorice. The finish is long and smooth, with hints of dark chocolate and subtle oak. Enjoy this wine now or cellar it for a few years to experience its full potential.
