Hermitage Le Greal Sorrel 2009 presents a complex tapestry of flavours drawn from meticulously cultivated vineyards, primarily the Méal and Gréffieux sites. This vintage reveals a structured and earthy character, with notable nuances of ripe dark berries, including blackcurrants and blackberries, intertwined with subtle notes of plum and a hint of tobacco. The tannic framework is resolute yet balanced, allowing for an extended finish marked by spices and minerality. Maison Sorrel, renowned for its viticultural expertise in the Rhône Valley, has consistently produced wines that reflect their unique terroir.

Robert Parker
A stunning, potentially profound effort, the 2009 Hermitage Le Greal (14.6% natural alcohol) is a 30 to 35-year wine. Terrific aromas of charcoal, roasted meats, blackberries, boysenberries, licorice and graphite jump from the glass of this full-bodied, unctuously textured, thick, concentrated wine. Give it 5-7 years of cellaring and enjoy it over the following three decades. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.
