點擊次數(shù)：4505

The elegant, medium-bodied, stylish 1999 Hermitage, from one of that appellation's least favored sectors, exhibits scents of minerals mixed with red and black currants. It lacks the substance and majesty of the appellation's top wines. It possesses admirable character, but less concentration than the Crozes-Hermitage La Guiraude as well as the cuvee classique. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2014. Importer: A Christopher Cannan Selection, various American importers including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel. (516) 677-9300 and Diamond Wine Merchants, Oakland, CA; tel. (510) 567-9897

Great intensity of Hermitage terroir in this explosive, full-bodied, traditional red. Like a slow-burning fuse, it takes some time to detonate all its multifaceted power. Loaded with plum, blackberry, citrus and mineral, also with an earthy note, it bursts with fruit flavors on the ultralong finish. First classic-rated wine for Graillot. Last vintage for his Hermitage though, as he lost his leased vineyards. Best from 2005 through 2015. 50 cases made.??–PM??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Hermitage Select to Add
