Hermitage Le Greal Sorrel 2007 is a blend primarily sourced from the prestigious lieux-dits of Meal and Les Greffieux. This vintage incorporates 50% whole bunches, which contributes to its structural complexity. The wine presents pronounced blackcurrant and dark fruit aromas, alongside secondary notes of earth, herbs and subtle spice. Its medium to full body is matched by well-integrated tannins, allowing for a balanced mouthfeel. Domaine Sorrel has a history of meticulous vineyard practices, fostering the distinctive terroir of Hermitage. This wine is suitable for immediate enjoyment or can be cellared for a decade or more.

Vinous
- Ruby-red. Deeper and smokier than the normale, displaying scents of cherry, cassis, licorice and smoked meat. Dense and chewy in texture, with pungent dark fruit compote and violet pastille flavors given grip by dusty tannins. An altogether more serious and formidable wine than the basic bottling, with greater finishing richness and a larger tannic structure. Still, I suspect that fans of finesse might score the straight Hermitage higher.
