2012 Domaine Jean Louis Chave Hermitage Wine and beautifully textured"There's a new leather note to the blackberry fruit. It's full bodied, exceptionally smooth on your tongue. Great concentration but also great freshness. Acidity is perfectly balanced, this is a Hermitage of great liveliness, pep and freshness. Very long finish. The alcohol isn't low, but it's balanced. Long finish. An exceptional wine in the making." Decanter 98 Points
