2023 Certitude Francois Village Crozes-Hermitage - Rhône, France

A Northern Rhône Syrah with confidence and charm — packed with juicy blackberries, dark plums, and fragrant violets, wrapped in silky tannins and a crack of black pepper. François Villard's Certitude Crozes-Hermitage is vibrant and expressive, balancing ripe fruit with savoury notes of spice, herbs, and a subtle mineral edge. Elegant enough for special occasions, but approachable enough to open on a Wednesday night.

Crafted from 100% Syrah by one of the Rhône Valley's most respected growers — combining purity of fruit with the finesse that defines great Crozes-Hermitage.
