Reviews & Scores
Another heavenly white from this estate is the 2020 Hermitage Blanc, which is the usual 80% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne from a mix lieux-dits. Incredibly perfumed with notes of acacia flowers, buttered stone fruits, toasted brioche, honeysuckle, and crushed stone, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a seamless, layered texture, beautiful mid-palate depth, and a great finish. The purity, balance, and intensity here are just about off the charts, and this beauty deserves a solid decade of bottle age, although you'll be excused if you drink one in its youth as well. - JD

I tasted five different lots that will be blended into the 2020 Hermitage Blanc, from Péléat, l'Ermite and three parts of Les Rocoules. Full-bodied, honeyed and rich, this should be another outstanding vintage for Chave's white, with the incredible lushness of the bigger wines balanced by the zestiness found at the top of Les Rocoules and the delicacy and freshness of L'Ermite.

Cask samples tasted at the domaine.Sample 1: Le Péléat.Rich but precise with plenty of flesh and volume.Sample 2: upper part of Rocoule.Floral aromatics. Rich again but a little more vibrant and vigorous.Sample 3: L’Hermite.More profound with incredible depth and complexity.Sample 4: Rocoule.Vibrant but discreet. Lovely purity and precision. (JL) - JR
