Jean-Louis Chave Hermitage Rouge
Syrah
| Vintage: | 2017 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Jean-Louis Chave had done some preblending of the 2017 at the time of my visit, meaning several parcels had already been combined with others, so there were fewer components to taste. A sample that included some L'Ermite, Les Beaumes and Peleat was fragrant, loaded with peppery spice and came across as slightly open knit. A secong component, mostly Le Meal, was richer and riper tasting, with lush fruit and hints of roasted meat. Finally, a sample Jean-Louis described as "more the core of the blend" (Mainly Les Bessards) was simultaneously firm and generous, with notes of crushed stone, cassis and licorice (98-100).
