Ferraton Père & Fils La Matinière Crozes-Hermitage 2018 Wine Review

Natalie's Score: 91/100

From Ferraton Père & Fils, La Matinière 2018 is a savoury and full-bodied 100% Syrah, fragrant with bright cherry, crushed raspberry, plum, savoury herbs, pepper spice vibrant, full and smooth on the palate. Tannins are pleasantly grippy. This is a beautiful Crozes-Hermitage, Rhône red, elegant and in perfect harmony throughout. Most of the wine was aged in concrete tanks with 15% in new and neutral oak barrels. La Matinière translates to “early bird” and is in reference to Colette Ferraton, wife of winemaker, Michel Ferraton. Good now, better in 2023. Decant one hour prior to pouring it with a juicy prime rib roast.

Food pairings: grilled skirt steak, lamb roast, meat-lover's pizza.
