43 Crozes-Hermitage Blanc AC 2009
Domaine des EntrefauxGrape:80% Marsanne, 20% Roussanne (12.5% alc.)
François’ white Crozes is made from the classic mix of 20 year old Marsanne and Roussanne aged in 2/3 cuve and 1/3 oak (three to ten year old barrels). It offers hints of apricot, quince and mango on the nose, which follow through on the palate, where the controlling influence of limestone helps retain a freshness and dynamism. Available September. For drinking now to 2012.

44 Crozes-Hermitage Rouge AC 2007
Domaine des EntrefauxGrape:100% Syrah (12.5% alc.)
This excellent wine comes from 30 year old vines planted both in alluvial soil in Beaumont-Monteux and clay-limestone hillsides in Chanos Curson. Mid-red, it offers a gorgeous nose of mulberries and black cherries enhanced by a well judged elevage in a mix of old foudres, five year old barrels and cuve. For drinking now to 2012.
