| Tasting Notes | Jeb Dunnuck: Jean Louis Chave commented that 2005 was not a "friendly vintage" on release and compared it to 1998, 1995 and 1983 in style. His 2005 Hermitage is nevertheless an incredible wine that shines for its purity, focus and pure class. Offering up lots of granite-like minerality, creme de cassis, violets and graphite, this rich, full-bodied, gorgeously concentrated Hermitage has good acidity, building, ripe tannin and a fabulous finish. While I'd happily drink a glass today, it needs another 3-4 years of bottle age to hit prime time and will keep for two to three decades after that. |
