WIth grilled burgers, roasted redskins with truffle butter and grilled
yellow squash I opened a bottle of 2006 Yann Chave Crozes Hermitage.
I've just about polished off a case over the past year and it makes a
great grilling wine. Very deep purple in the glass, fairly
concentrated nose of smoke, black plums and a deep sage/herbal note.
Smooth and dense on the palate, fairly concentrated, ripe black fruit
flavors, blackberry, black cherry, some greenish ganja on the finish
and a bit of white pepper. "B"
