Ferraton Pere et Fils Hermitage le Meal Estate

Syrah from Hermitage

Vintage: 2012
Description: Wa 95 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, September 2015 I loved the 2012 Hermitage le Meal Estate last year on release, and I loved it this year as well. Its inky color is followed by terrific notes of black raspberries (which I almost always find in wines from le Meal). I loved the 2012 Hermitage le Meal Estate last year on release, and I loved it this year as well. Its inky color is followed by terrific notes of black raspberries (which I almost always find in wines from le Meal), cassis, graphite, wood smoke and violets. These give way to a full-bodied Hermitage that has beautiful purity of fruit, a streak of vibrant acidity, sweet tannin, and a great finish, all of which will allow it to drink nicely for 15-20 years. - Jeb Dunnuck Ws 95 Wine Spectator, April 2015 This smolders beautifully already, with charcoal, bay and tobacco notes wafting up from the core of mulled currant, fig and blackberry fruit. The long finish lets a ganache accent course through, revealing a tarry.

The long finish lets a ganache accent course through, revealing a tarry underpinning. Best from 2017 through 2028. 85 cases made.–JM Jr 91 Jancis Robinson's Purple Pages, November 2013 (17.5/20) Syrah, in oak barrels for 14 to 18 months. Galets roulés. Dark purple. Sample is a little tired on the nose. Massive grip on the palate but solid and meaty. Lots of ambition here.
