Description

Antoine Ogier Oratorio Crozes-Hermitage is a red wine from Crozes-Hermitage, the largest appellation in France's northern Rhône Valley, where Syrah is the only red grape allowed. Oratorio is one of the Rhône bottlings in the Antoine Ogier wine range.

The 2014 starts out a little shy and reveals some fruit once it gets air. What stands out is the balance: firm, tight tannins, a fine mineral streak and delicate spice on the palate.

Give it some time in a decanter and serve it just below room temperature. It is a natural match for curried or roast lamb and aged cheeses. A good bottle for anyone exploring Syrah and Rhône reds beyond the big names.
