Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate February - 2001
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Chapoutier's Ermitage l'Ermite possesses a transparent character that almost allows the taster to see through the wine's multiple levels. What stands out is the liqueur of granite liquid minerality. The elegant 1998 Ermitage l'Ermite rouge is light, but exquisitely balanced, with subtle notes of smoke and black currants. The flavors unfold gently and gracefully, with nothing overstated. The power is restrained, the tannin is well-integrated, and the acidity is barely noticeable. However, the wine is fresh and beautifully delineated. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2040.

With 2 hours of double decanting under its belt, everything was in play. The wine is thick, rich, plush and polished, with layers of sweet, perfectly ripe dark berries, licorice, stone and earthy notes. The wine is long and fresh. The wine was even better with another hour or two in the glass.

Dark red color. Long live. Beautiful. Intense. Medium intensity nose. END. Fruity. Smoke. Grid. Superb smell of evolution and reduction. Soot, cherry and mineral at the same time. Very nice, soft, suave entry into the mouth, developing a fine and fruity mouthfeel. Slow complex and tasty tannic evolution on a fine and very, very aromatic grain, where flowers, fruits, spices mingle in great freshness. It's very long on a fine grain and very good! A crazy charm that has nothing to lose in the face of the concentration of the 99.

This was really good. Tannins are integrated, and the wine is showing nice notes of blackberry, pepper, cherry, earth, oak, leather, with medium intensity, and a nice roundness and elegance on the finish.

Savoury, earthy flavours with a hint of garrigue. Lovely texture and good balance with fairly long finish. After decanting for a few hours, the wine did open up - tannins softened and the some spicy notes came through. However, overall, the wine was not expressive and the flavours were lacking in depth.

Healthy crimson. Broad panoply of flavours. Very sweet at first then pinched and tart on the palate. No opulence or grandeur.

M. Chapoutier
Since 1808, the name Chapoutier has existed in the Rhone Valley. The distant ancestor Polydor Chapoutier began by buying some vines then becoming winemaker then grower, breeder and negociant. The pioneering spirit was already in the family.  Since 1990, Michel, is leading this exceptional company. A land rich in history and traditions. Passionate expression of soils, Michael gives his convictions ways to thrive. History of time. As is true for each element of nature. Time and the earth. Roots, the vine and the fruit. This is where the richness and generosity of the Maison M. Chapoutier begins.
