Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
From one of the greatest years in Hermitage, Jean Louis Chave's 2009 Hermitage Blanc is quite possibly the greatest white ever from this estate (the 2013 will certainly be in the same league, but in a different style) and tops out on my scale. An utterly profound wine in every way, it offers to-die-for notes of liquid rock, licorice, buttered citrus, honey and quince. This gives way to a voluptuous, full-bodied, decadent and heavenly Hermitage Blanc that has massive richness and mid-palate depth while always staying fresh, pure and focused. This is insanely good white that will have half a century of longevity. Bravo!

 A stunning display of richness and precision, with almost languid creamed Cavaillon melon, peach and persimmon fruit framed by toasted macadamia nut and brioche hints. This is kept lively by salted butter, chamomile and orange blossom flavors through the very long finish, where a quinine note echoes.

The 2009s are powerful but not heavy', he assures me. Fuller and softer than Rocoules but with minerality. Real spine underneath. Deceptive. Excitement

Showing much better than when last tasted a few years ago. The wine is intense, powerful, concentrated, vibrant and fresh, with load of sweet, slightly honeyed lemon, grapefruit, flowers and stone notes. Luscious in texture, the wine leaves a long impression of fruit and freshness.

The Jean Louis Chave estate is the jewel of a centuries-old family. Jean Louis Chave is the sixth generation of winemakers in this domain. The estate 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 flavors, but the "sum of the parts" is much more interesting than each cuvée taken individually. The red Hermitage from the Chave estate becomes dazzling after several years of aging. Full-bodied and concentrated, beautifully complex and refined, it develops a vast range of aromas from blackcurrant to smoky notes, including prune and spice flavors.

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