Well-crafted Hermitage delivering solid typicity and character. Deep ruby-purple with vibrant edges. Nose: attractive blackberry, blueberry, violet, cracked pepper and subtle earth. Palate: good concentration with pure dark fruits complemented by savory elements and touch of graphite. Full-bodied with firm yet ripe tannins and balanced acidity. Persistent finish with pleasant mineral undertone reflecting appellation’s granite soils. [Rhone Roots 2025, Lumiere London]
