expert's opinions

96 / 100
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
This wine reveals the viscosity of a rich Sauternes, although it is completely dry. This full-bodied, heavyweight, massively endowed monument to the Marsanne grape must be tasted to be believed. It is so thick and juicy that some tasters may be shocked by its intensity to the point of wondering what exactly is in the glass. Wines like this are rare, but I have no doubt that this wine will last and evolve for 30 + years. A classic! Anticipated maturity: 1998-2025. Last tasted 6/96.

M. Chapoutier
M. Chapoutier

Founded in 1808 in Tain-l'Hermitage, the house of M. Chapoutier is today the leading owner of the Hermitage hill. Since 1990, Michel Chapoutier has cultivated the vines using biodynamic methods and bottles separately the great named sites of the hillside — Le Pavillon, L'Ermite, Le Méal — as single-parcel selections of syrah and marsanne. Since 1996, each label bears the name of the wine in Braille, as a tribute to Maurice Monier de la Sizeranne.

Among the house's great vintages, the 1989 vintage and the 1990 rank among the pinnacles of Hermitage, while the 2003, the 2009 and the 2021 vintage continue this pursuit of excellence across more recent years. These are wines of very long ageing potential, to be decanted and served with roasted meat or game.
