JEAN-LOUIS CHAVE - Hermitage Blanc - 2018

JEAN-LOUIS CHAVE

Hermitage Blanc 2018

The thickness of the skins on Chave’s old vine parcels is what gives this wine its unrestricted depth and intensity, as well as it s ability to age for a very long time. Aromas run from very pretty and floral, through peaches and lemons and into crushed and grilled nuts. The palate is such a textural essay with an attractively youthful and pithy shunt of tannin that underwrites a considerably long finish and long cellaring potential.
