The serious 2010 Hermitage Gambert de Loche reveals an inky/purple color along with notes of creme de cassis, acacia flowers, graphite, licorice and toast. Deep, full-bodied and powerful with moderate tannins, it needs 5-6 years of cellaring and should keep for 15 or more years.
This cooperative located on the outskirts of the village of Tain l’Hermitage is one of France’s finest coops, producing some of the Northern Rhone’s most astonishing wines. They are reviewed below in the order in which I tasted them. I was knocked-out by the quality of their two cuvees of 2010 Hermitage. The Crozes-Hermitage selections are very strong in 2010 and above average to good in 2011. The 2010s rachet up the level of richness and intensity. The St.-Joseph cuvees are all strong efforts.
No known American importer.
