Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate December - 2011
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
The greatest wines Chave has produced since 2003 are the two cuvees of 2009 Hermitage. The 2009 Hermitage exhibits a black/purple colour along with a sumptuous nose of roasted meats, ground pepper, blackcurrants, blackberry jam, and subtle smoke and liquorice. The extraordinary bouquet is followed by a wine of extravagant intensity as well as tremendous focus and precision. Whilst not as powerful as the blockbuster 2003, the amazing 2009 may turn out to be a modern day version of their magnificent 1990 (which is drinking incredibly well at present). Anyone who loves Hermitage and has a cold cellar should be lining up to get a few bottles of this beauty.

Strong ruby red. The nose is more restrained than the 2010 alongside it, one searches, one finds, spices, eucalyptus, leather, white pepper. On the palate with pressure and a certain opulence, has more Rubens character than in other years, yet remains elegant and balanced, top tannins, harmonious acidity, spice and ripe fruit aromas on the finish. Enjoy now until 2040.

Shows the plush edge of the vintage, with velvety but substantial tannins that course authoritatively underneath the core of dark plum, cassis and blackberry fruit. A fine dusting of charcoal coats the edges whilst a seam of tar pulls the finish together. Primal, young and poised for a long life.

Sweet, candied, ripe cherry and plummy fruits. Sexy opulence and really showy stuff, that's on the sugary side of things. Putting up a real bit of exhibition here. White peppers, olives. The density is there but I do pick up that touch of jamminess which although is not cloying, am hoping to dissipate with age.

L'Hermite: Meaty and now we come to something a bit more recognisably Hermitage. Big and resonant with a hint of liquorice. Tannins very polished though. Long and builds on the finish.

Château Domaine Jean-Louis Chave
Domaine Jean-Louis Chave
Domaine Jean-Louis Chave

The Jean Louis Chave estate is the jewel of a centuries-old family. Jean Louis Chave is the sixth generation of winemaker in this estate. The domain is renowned for its high-quality Hermitage wines. Located in the North of the Rhône region, the estate includes a 10-hectare vineyard for the production of its red wines; including a plot of very old vines Les Roucoules, another 80-year-old Les Bessards, relatively young vines at l'Ermite, extremely old at Péléat and Beaumes, and 50-year-old vines at Méal.

Each of these vineyards produces a wine with slightly different palettes of aromas, textures and flavours, but the "sum of the parts" is far more interesting than each cuvée taken individually. The red Hermitage from Domaine Chave becomes dazzling after several years of ageing. Full-bodied and concentrated, magnificently complex and refined, it develops a vast array of aromas ranging from blackcurrant to smoky notes, with hints of prune and spices.

The white wine from Domaine Chave develops creamy and honeyed aromas of hazelnut, peach and apricot, with a rare unctuousness, and has the potential to age for several decades. These Hermitages stand out, with their freshness, balance, finesse, and length, clearly above all others.
