“The 1999 Hermitage blanc is a glorious effort. It is a 1,000-case blend of 80% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne, all from Les Rocoules, Maison Blanche, l’Ermite, and Peleat. It is an oily, unctuously-textured wine with low acidity, fabulous, concentrated, honeysuckle, citrus, liquid mineral, and acacia flower-like flavors. The finish lasts for nearly 45 seconds. It will be gorgeous young, but evolve for two decades or more.â€?/em>94 points, The Wine Advocate

An icon of Northern Rh�ne white wine craftsmanship also. Here, of Marsanne and Roussanne. Sourced from exceptional Hermitage hillside parcels, the â€?9 shows after over a quarter of a century, all the intriguing complexities that become the appellation’s classic white flower, honey, stone fruit and vibrant mineral aromas and flavours. Truly world-class.
