The 2011 Crozes Hermitage Courbis gives up attractive notes of black cherry, earth, bouquet garni and hints of minerality, medium-bodied richness and juicy acidity. It too is a delicious, easygoing wine to drink over the coming 4-5 years or so. This was a good, yet certainly not inspiring, lineup from this domaine. As a whole, the 2011s look to be marginally more successful than the 2012s. Importer: H. Mercer Wine & Spirits Imports, Los Angeles CA; tel. (213) 221-9799
