Certitude 2017

- 90 points -

The 2017 Crozes Hermitage Certitude is a full-bodied, plush example of the appellation. Loads of black cherry fruit are nicely balanced by savory hints of licorice, espresso and black olives. Enjoy it over the next few years for its youthful exuberance—it's an ideal bistro-styled red.

À propos de Wine Advocate

Robert Parker founded his bi-monthly newsletter, The Wine Advocate, in 1978. Since then he has come to be called "the most influential wine writer in the world today." In 2001 he launched eRobertParker.com. His team of Wine Advocates now comprehensively covers the world of fine wines in a way that no one person can any longer do. Parker continues to review the great wines of Bordeaux and Northern California and acts as a critic-at-large conducting vertical tastings and horizontal tastings of older vintages of California and elsewhere.
