Blockbuster Hermitage, geared for an international audience. Thick, full-bodied, rich and ripe, and heavily extracted modern style. Lots of tar, charred wood and grilled meat aromas. The tannins are ripe and sweet, the fruit is delicious, the texture silky, the finish long and satisfying. Give it time. Tasted twice with identical scores. Best from 2005 through 2012. 400 cases made, 220 cases imported.??–PM??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Hermitage Select to Add
