2003 E. Guigal Crozes-Hermitage (France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Crozes-Hermitage)



This one is beginning to show a little weird. I thought it nearly undrinkable right out of the bottle. Thin and weedy, acidic and angular, I left this in the cellar for a few days, and interestingly enough, the wine has filled out and plushed up. It's showing mostly black berries and black olive tapenade flavors. A tad simple, but drinkable. Yet, I don't see this ageing for too much longer. A wine that I am not sure how to assess its lifespan.
