Tasting Note

Brilliant and limpid straw yellow. Complex aromas of vanilla, almonds, dried fruits and linden-tree. The minerality is marked (typical of the soil). Very round and rich wine. An elegant balance, with a light bitterness at the end. Very ripe white fruit aromas (peach and apricot). Beautiful length in mouth and a huge complexity. According to the vintage, the wine can be kept from 30 to 60 years, indeed from 50 to 75 years.

Product Notes

M. Chapoutier L’Ermite Blanc is a luxurious French wine that stands as a beacon of sophistication. This Roussanne-based wine hails from the regions of Northern Rhône, majestically mirroring its terroir. The wine emits a bouquet of opulent aromas - honeysuckle, apricots, and toasted almonds, all seamlessly blended. Upon sampling, one discovers zesty citrus flavours, harmonised with warm undertones of honey and oak. This wine's elegance is retained in the long, mineral-tinged aftertaste. M. Chapoutier L’Ermite Blanc is an extravagant, full-bodied wine, bearing the potential of remarkable longevity. It pairs beautifully with lobster or truffles, enhancing a posh gourmet experience.
