WINE DESCRIPTION
Paul Jaboulet Aîné Crozes-Hermitage Domaine de Thalabert is a premium red wine that showcases the expertise of one of the most respected wine producers in the Rhône Valley. This wine comes from the Crozes-Hermitage appellation, which is known for producing some of the finest Syrah grapes in the world. The vineyard features steep slopes and granite soils that impart a unique minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, traditional fermentation, and aging in oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth.

ORIGINS
Winery: Paul Jaboulet Aîné
Region: Rhone
The Rhone wine region is located in southeastern France. It runs along the Rhone River roughly from Lyon in the north to Avignon in the south. It is divided into two main sub-regions: the Northern Rhone, running from Lyon to Montelimar, and the Southern Rhone, from Montelimar to Avignon. Although wines of all color are made, both regions are most famous for thier red wine. The Northern Rhone is known for its full-bodied red wines made from Syrah grapes with the possible inclusion of some white grapes, while the Southern Rhone is known for its blends of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the ancient Romans with the sites of some former Roman vineyards being replanted surrounding the town of Vienne.CUSTOMER RATING
