Ermitage Cuvee de l'Oree 2008 Chapoutier

Professionelle Bewertungen

Slightly better is the 600-case cuvee of 2008 Ermitage Cuvee de l’Oree. This brilliant white Hermitage from the top of the granite dome of this appellation offers notes of roasted hazelnuts, nectarine oil, citrus, quince and crushed rocks. Astonishingly full-bodied and rich, particularly in view of the vintage conditions, it is exceeded in quality ever so slightly by the two white Hermitages that follow.

Racy and invigorating in feel, with dried chamomile flower and lime zest notes leading the way, backed by vibrant anise, fennel, white peach, salted butter and quinine notes. Picks up a touch of golden raisin on the superlong finish.
