A highly sought-after Northern Rhône white from Domaine Jean-Louis Chave, the 2015 release has proved a high scoring vintage amongst the critics. Produced from a blend of 80% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne from the l’Ermite, Péleat, and les Rocoules lieux-dits.
To quote Robert Parker`s Wine Advocate, `This rich, unctuous beauty has terrific purity and depth, with the classic concentration, extract and fat that’s the hallmark of the estate’s Hermitage Blanc. White currants, buttered citrus, toasted bread and hints of flower oil are just some of the nuances here and this beauty will deliver the goods.`

The 2015 L'Ermitage Blanc has a complex and involving bouquet with scents of yellow plum, lychee, beeswax and lemon verbena. With continued aeration, hints of stem ginger and chai emerge. The palate is beautifully balanced with white peaches, apricot and a soupçon of something...Germanic! This boasts impressive mineralité and a peacock's tail on the weighty finish. The 2015 is a supremely gifted white Rhône that will give 20+ years of drinking pleasure. Tasted blind at the "five" dinner at Domaine de Chevalier. Neal Martin17th June 2025
