Tasting Notes

The 2017 Ermitage l'Ermite stands out as an equally astounding expression of Hermitage, presenting a unique amalgamation of le Pavillon's reserved character and le Méal's generous nature. This results in a wine that can only be described as flawless. Its pristine cassis fruit exhibits remarkable purity, complemented by intricate nuances of crushed stone, salted licorice, and subtle hints of fine-grained oak. Full-bodied and concentrated, it boasts a velvety texture, with abundant yet ripe tannins contributing to its chewy appeal, while the finish lingers on the palate for minutes, leaving a lasting impression of its magnificence.
