Description:
Shows a lightly firm plum skin edge, with a briary feel to the pomegranate, black cherry pepper and tobacco notes. A tangy iron edge peeks through on the finish, with the briar note hanging on as well. Order from the Largest & Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! , Wine Advocate: The 2008 Hermitage is a down-sized version of Chave's typical Hermitage, but it is, nevertheless, an elegant, mid-weight, pure effort exhibiting berry fruit intermixed with hints of black currants, herbs, pepper, meat juice and bouquet garni. When asked how they made such a fine wine in such a difficult vintage, the Chaves said that over 33% of the entire harvest was declassified. The 2008 is a wine to consume in its first 10-12 years of life, although I suspect it will last longer., Falstaff: Ethereally herbal and spicy, sweet cherry, menthol, green pepper, complex and captivating. On the palate, sandy tannin is at its first ripeness, still has tension, but no longer astringency, the ethereal spice is immediately present on the palate, despite 14 percent volume, the wine does not have a gram of fat too much, appears concentrated, sinewy and puristic, and yet everything melts in the finish Components seamlessly round and smooth in one. NOTICE: Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.
