A smoking white, the 2012 Hermitage Blanc les Miaux is made from equal parts Roussanne and Marsanne that was aged in demi-muid. Loaded with notes of almond paste, toasted bread, apple blossom and honeysuckle, it flows onto the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, integrated acidity and great finish. It will have 15 years or more of longevity.
