Thoughtful Etienne Pochon is our touchstone for quality in the large northern Rhône appellation of Crozes Hermitage, which surrounds Hermitage proper and yields lighter Syrah styles. Generations of Pochons have occupied the cobblestone built medieval Château de Curson, but have only made their own wines, by eco friendly methods, since 1988. Aged in large barrels, this supple, savoury wine has ripe redcurrant fruit and hints of liquorice, pepper and spice. Great with roast ham.
