The 2003 Crozes-Hermitage Vieilles Vignes (produced from 60-year old vines in Larnage) exhibits sweet blackberry fruit, a primordial, backward style, and undeniable elegance, precision, and clarity. With 13.5% alcohol (high for this appellation, but low for the vintage), it should be consumed over the next decade.
