RP98 "The 1991 is a sleeper. I suspect many readers have forgotten how spectacular this vintage was in the northern Rhone, particularly Cote Rotie." RP Apr 2002
"In 1991, Chave made 2,500 bottles of an Hermitage Cuvee Cathelin that is significantly richer and more profound than the classic cuvee. It offers an opaque dark purple color, and a huge nose of cassis, vanillin, smoke, and flowers. Full-bodied, dense, and powerful, this is a deeply concentrated, rich, compelling bottle of Hermitage."
