Falstaff May - 2021
Falstaff
From Syrah vines 90 to 100 years old: a strong garnet red with a broad, ochre-coloured rim. Delicately smoky aromas of Black Forest berries, a hint of liquorice, some juniper, subtle notes of oak, dark minerality, very complex and inviting. Juicy, complex, fresh sour cherry, fine sweetness, silky-smooth, with supportive tannins, a hint of damp stones on the finish, great length, firm and dry, remarkably youthful, almost still a touch too young to reveal its full potential.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Even better and a prodigious effort that hits all my sweet spots, the 2011 Ermitage Le Pavillon comes from one of the top terroirs on Hermitage hill, the granite soils of the Les Bessards lieu-dit. Spectacularly perfumed, with raspberry, blackberry, licorice, toasted spices and assorted floral nuances, this full-bodied effort has massive depth and richness, no hard edges and masses of finely polished tannin that emerge on and frame the finish. It will be approachable at an earlier age than either the 2009 or 2010, yet should nevertheless have 2-3 decades of ultimate longevity.

Adrian van Velsen - vvWine
Ruby red, practically no signs of maturation. The nose is deep, smoky, cool, noble, with lots of spice, pepper, anise, and above that, violets. On the palate, firm, crisp fruit, lots of structure, top-class tannins, very good acidity, the wine has freshness and breed, the balance is spot on, tremendously powerful, it opens up on the mid-palate, lingers long, leaving behind a mix of red and dark berries as well as liquorice aromas. This wine is still very youthful, definitely a long-distance runner with great reserves and much elegance. Grand Syrah cinema. One can certainly start drinking it now, but better to enjoy it from 2028 to 2048.

Densely packed, with dark plum, currant paste and macerated fig fruit, offset by a zesty edge. Briary tannins stride along with the copious fruit, revealing lots of spice and bramble notes on the finish. Very dense for the vintage.

Jancis Robinson June - 2012
Jancis Robinson
Dark, shiny crimson. Very meaty, savoury and the most obviously stereotypically Hermitage. Polished tannins but they are there in abundance. Very notable acidity and bone dry fruit. Wait ages before opening this. Lots of fresh, characterful fruit. Very serious indeed – for enormous eventual pleasure.

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.
