Don't forget the spectacular 1998 Hermitage Le Greal (rated 95+). Although it requires 7-8 years of cellaring, it is one of the finest wines Sorrel has made, and it has the potential to be as good as his 1990, 1989, 1988, and perhaps the 1978 and 1979 his father produced. Nevertheless, it is only for connoisseurs with patience as a serious investment in cellaring is required.Not a single new oak barrel can be found in Sorrel's cellars, which are on the main street of Tain l'Hermitage. His one concession to modernism is his air-conditioned cellar. Production is small, with 1,000 cases of white and red Hermitage, and the rest Crozes-Hermitage.Importers: Cynthia Hurley Wine Imports, West Newton, MA; fax (617) 965-7530 and World Wine Import, Atlanta, GA; fax (404) 842-1487
