Domaine Garon, Croze-Hermitage “Around the Rhone” 2022

A classic Croze-Hermitage, but remarkably concentrated and with a generous dose of juice! Pronounced nose of ripe berries, violet, hints of liquorice and spice, and a touch of coffee beans. Medium to full bodied, persistent tannins with a very subtle saltiness.

In the press

James Suckling | Points: 92
“A juicy, fruit-driven and well-balanced red with noses of dark cherries, blueberries, violets and roasted meat. It’s medium-bodied with finely grained tannins. Juicy centre palate with crunchy dark cherry character and bright blue fruit bringing freshness to the spicy finish. Drink or hold.”

The Winery

Domaine Garon is a family-run estate with deep roots in the region’s winemaking tradition. The domaine spans approximately 15 hectares of terraced vineyards, primarily planted with Syrah, the hallmark grape of Côte-Rôtie. The steep, granite-rich slopes, combined with the region’s warm Mediterranean climate, create ideal conditions for producing elegant and age-worthy wines. However, the Garons don’t believe that their wines need long ageing and recommend that both can be drunk young.

With its meticulous vineyard management, emphasising sustainability and respect for the terroir, Garon’s wines showcase a juicy, rounded balance, along with an elegant and delicate style, characteristic of great Côte-Rôtie cuvées.
