Jeb Dunnuck, 92 Points 

"Plenty of black fruits, spicy oak, bacon fat, and floral notes emerge from the 2019 Crozes-Hermitage Les Hauts Granites, a rich, medium-bodied, beautifully textured Crozes-Hermitage that has more than a touch of Hermitage-like minerality and structure. It's a beautiful, age-worthy Crozes to drink over the coming 10-12 years or more." 

Vinous, 92 Points 

"Opaque magneta.  An expansive bouquet evokes ripe cherry and blackberry, pungent flowers, licorice and smoked meat.  Taut, lively and appealingly sweet, offering concentrated black and blue fruit, cola and baking spice flavors with a savory, olive paste note.  Finishes long and spicy, with repeating florally, a hint of black pepper and steadily building tannins."
