Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider March - 2024
Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider
This is a good time to start popping corks on this gem. Over the years, this has blossomed into a fabulous wine. Now, you find smoky red, and black fruits, dried flowers, cedar, cigar wrappers, spices, and peppery thyme. There is a refined edge to the textures on the palate. The vibrant finish blends wild cherries, spices, blackberries, herbs, and smoke. The wine evolves in your mouth leaving you with a peppery-edged, lingering finish. Drink from 2024-2045

Strong ruby garnet, broad ochre rim. Fine spice of ivy and some lime, underlaid with delicate morello cherry fruit, red berry nuances, mandarin zest. Elegant, fine black berry fruit, substantial, balanced tannins, mineral aftertaste. Cherries on the finish, not yet completely harmonious, still needs time, good further development potential.

Lovely seam of deep, dense black fruit that is creamy, with chocolate and plum depth and a little bit of earthy richness. Gorgeous palate, a really silky texture and flooded with sweet berry fruit intermingled with vanilla and lots of pure, silky finesse from fine tannins and balanced acidity. Very pure, very long, and excellent. Surprisingly approachable, but seems balanced and built for the long haul.

Intact color, discreet orange tones at the rim. Expressive nose, notes of leather, red and black berries, some forest floor, autumn leaves, orange zest. On the palate mature, melted tannins, fine acidity structure, the delicate fruit is still present, the wine shows flow and harmony, appears slender and resonates with red fruits and fine spices.

Jancis Robinson July - 2009

Relatively pale and evolved-looking. Real lift on the nose but lighter than the 2004 overall. Great balance but a bit more austere than the 2004. Very serious and correct with nice length. Sinewy. Polished. A bit muted.

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 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.
