Jean Louis Chave is undoubtedly one of the greatest producers of Hermitage Rouge. As one of the largest landowners in the Hermitage appellation Chave has vines spread across 9 of the finest lieux-dits, with the Rouge being made from 100% Syrah sourced from vines ranging between 50 and 85+ years of age. The 2016 release is full-bodied and luxuriant, offering up spicy black fruits with a subtle herbal streak and deep crushed stone minerality. With wonderful fineness of texture, this is surprisingly approachable but, as ever with Chave, the best will be unleashed with further cellaring.
