weightless elegance and an elusiveness that is only matched by the greatest Burgundies

it fills your mouth

There is once again excellent mid-palate concentration to the much more mineral-driven flavors that possess first-rate complexity on the wonderfully long and balanced if markedly austere finale

Yann Chave, Hermitage other_regions_italy weightless elegance and an elusivenessIntense butcher's shop aromas, with smoked meat and a touch of VA. Powerful but not overly full in the mouth, the tannins are still chiselled and serrated. Piercing acidity runs through it to a very long, powerful finish. It's ready now, but will age with real interest. Really fabulous, growling and energetic an Hermitage in wolf's clothing.
