M. Chapoutier, Ermitage L’ Ermite Blanc, 2005, Rhone
AED 1,700
2 in stock
“The 2005 Ermitage l’Ermite blanc is a wine with incredible fruit and an amazingly layered mouthfeel. There are flowers, there are minerals, there’s quince, white currants, perhaps peach as well, but the sheer minerality of the wine and its force and richness without tasting heavy or over-the-top is simply mind-boggling. It is backward and more intellectually challenging than l’Oree, but it is a tour de force in winemaking. It will be a 50+ year wine.” Wine Advocate #170

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

This amazing powerhouse from Ribera del Duero. Tinto Pesquera Reserva 2012 - Bodegas Alejandro Fernández. Decanting is advised 👌🍷 delicious cherry, vanilla, leather and cederbox with cigars. Milk chocolat, forrest floor, laurel. Great lenght and depth Amazing wine!

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
