Rhône Valley - Ermitage
Ratings
Tasting notes
Appearance:
Brilliant and limpid straw yellow.
Nose:
Complex aromas of vanilla, almonds, dried fruits and linden-tree. The minerality is marked (typical of the soil).
Palate:
Very round and rich wine. An elegant balance, with a light bitterness at the end. Very ripe white fruit aromas (peach and apricot). Beautiful length in mouth and a huge complexity.
Sommelier's advice:
Wine pairing: Arctic char, declinaison of beets.
Grape variety/varieties:
100% Marsanne.
Harvest:
To ensure a perfect balance between ripeness and freshness, each plot of land is harvested several times by hand.
Soil:
At the top of the Hermitage hill, around the chapel. East-facing Terrasse. Very poor granite and loess soil.
Vinification:
Whole grapes are pressed and a moderate amount of sulphur is used. Light settling. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts in half-muids (with 25% of new wood) and stainless steel vats.
Ageing:
Aged on lees for 12 months.
Alcohol content:
14
