Tasting Notes

94-96
Robert Parker Wine Advocate Joe Czerwinski - 29 Dec 17
The 2016 Hermitage Le Greal comes from Le Méal (85%) and Les Greffieux (15%). The vines are a substantial 60 years old, and with the April hail, only yielded 20 hectoliters per hectare. The wine is inky dark and concentrated, with firm tannins and attractive hints of licorice.
Drinking Date: 2022 - 2040

Vinous Josh Raynolds - 01 Sep 19
Opaque ruby. Spice- and mineral-accented aromas of candied black and blue fruits, violet candy and olive, along with a gamy topnote. Chewy and energetic on the palate, offering pliant, appealingly sweet blackberry and boysenberry flavors that deepen and pick up a peppery note with air. Closes with impressive power, building tannins and solid dark fruit thrust, leaving a suave floral note behind.
Drinking Date: 2024 - 2033

Jancis Robinson Richard Hemming - 17 Oct 17
Exquisite black cherry, black olive, juniper, chewy texture and a lovely savoury stony quality. Fragrant and profound with tannin that is both delicate yet firm. (RH)

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.
