Wine Spectator August - 2002
Wine Spectator
Gorgeous, very ripe Hermitage. Almost late-harvest in style, but with a dry aftertaste. Very floral (jasmine or roses, perhaps), with a touch of dried fig and dried pineapple, offering wet earth and mineral on the harmonious, citrusy finish. Seamless from start to creamy finish. Will age for years.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Bigger and richer than the '01, the sensational 2000 Ermitage le Meal Blanc knocks it out of the park with its buttered peach, wood smoke, orange liqueur, honey and hazelnut-driven bouquet. A wine that should make any Hermitage Blanc lover's knees weak, this full-bodied, voluptuous and concentrated effort has fabulous purity and a blockbuster finish. Totally hedonistic, it still has another 2-3 decades of longevity.

Jancis Robinson June - 2006

100% Marsanne, 50 year-old vines, glacial alluvial soils, 50% fermented in new oak casks, 50% in vats, 10-12 months maturation on lees. 15% alcohol! Intriguing and many layered nose of nuts and a hint of varnish with ripe greengages. Quite low in acidity but there are green notes here. Full bodied and very powerful. Already a good drink with persistent finish.

M. Chapoutier
M. Chapoutier
Since 1808, the Chapoutier name has existed in the Rhône Valley. The distant ancestor Polydor Chapoutier was the first to start buying vineyards, thus moving from the status of a winemaker on an estate to that of a winegrower, wine producer and merchant. The pioneering spirit was already inscribed in the family. Since 1990, Michel, in his forties, has been at the head of an exceptional vineyard. A land rich in its history and traditions. Passionate about the expression of terroir, Michel gives his convictions the means to flourish. Groundbreaking choices, to successfully synthesize the past with his own audacity. History of time. As it goes for each element of nature. Time and earth. The roots, the vine and the fruit. From there was born all the richness and generosity of the House of M. Chapoutier.
