Jean Esprit Crozes-Hermitage

The Esprit family sits on a 15ha vineyard in the Crozes-Hermitage, within the larger Northern Rhone. They are between two highly regarded prestigious producers, Domaine Combier and Domaine Graillot. 

Their Crozes-Hermitage shows why they are considered a rising star in the Northern Rhone. Like two producers they sit between, they directly push for elegant expressions of Syrah. Savory, fresh, and classically dark fruited with plum, blackberry, and blueberry. Further expressions of smoke, cracked pepper, olive tapenade, thyme, and gamey meat all point to why this a producer to try.
