Martin Texier VdF Cerouan 2022 NO20231108 and subtle hint of spiceMartin Texier steps into his own legacy with Crouan, his first vintage overseeing this prized Rhne site inherited from his father Eric Texier. Farmed without chemicals and crafted with serious intent, the 2022 shows rich, full bodied character with ample, well integrated tannins revealing dried black cherries, plums, blueberry, and earthy umami notes. A young wine with the structure and depth to reward patience.
