Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 17 Jun 25
The 2015 L'Ermitage Blanc has a complex and involving bouquet with scents of yellow plum, lychee, beeswax and lemon verbena. With continued aeration, hints of stem ginger and chai emerge. The palate is beautifully balanced with white peaches, apricot and a soupçon of something...Germanic! This boasts impressive mineralité and a peacock's tail on the weighty finish. The 2015 is a supremely gifted white Rhône that will give 20+ years of drinking pleasure. Tasted blind at the "five" dinner at Domaine de Chevalier.
Drinking Date: 2025 - 2050
Hermitage Fine Wine

Hermitage

Hermitage, a prestigious Northern Rhône appellation, is famed for its exceptional red and white wines. The reds, made primarily from Syrah, are known for their intense flavours of dark berries, black olives, spices, and smoky, meaty notes, with structured tannins and long finishes. The whites, mainly from Marsanne and Roussanne, offer richness with balanced acidity and flavours of honey, stone fruits, and nuts. Top producers like Domaine Jean-Louis Chave, E. Guigal, and Domaine Delas Frères are celebrated for showcasing Hermitage's unique terroir and quality.
