Product Description
RP95 "This under-the-radar vintage of Chave's Hermitage continues to impress every time. The 2001 Hermitage offers ethereal hints of violets and dried spices on the nose, set against a complex backdrop of redcurrants and green olives. Tasted at the domaine, this bottle came across as exceptionally youthful and still somewhat firm, capable of aging well for at least another decade." JC for WA Jan 2022
JS 96 "Super chalky nose with peach blossom and orange blossom leading to peach, orange citrus and orange peel flavors. This still has a little of the flesh and puppy fat on the palate. Still building. Extremely complex and very powerful." JS Jul 2017 DC97 "Twenty years after bottling, this is in the perfect sweet spot between fruit and developed leather and spice aromas. It feels young on the palate still, with defined black cherry characters. Pure, elegant and just about full-bodied. With fruity acidity and good tension, it’s still juicy while also being silky and fine with a long, meaty finish. A very classic Hermitage with perfect balance, ready to drink now."
