M. Chapoutier De L'Orée Ermitage Blanc 2009

Hermitage, Northern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceCompared to the 2008 which was elegant and balanced, this is a riper, more intense version. Floral, creamy, citrus, honey, pear, spicy, apricot, vanilla and guava aromas. Rich, full, round, concentrated and slightly warm. Honey, baked pear, apricot, pineapple, guava, vanilla cream, slate flavours. Fine intensity and balance. Michel suggests drinking this now and then again in 10-12 years.Tasted: 29 July 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
