“Showing signs of maturity, the 2004 Ermitage le Meal is an elegant, pretty and seamless Hermitage that offers up plenty of dried flowers, dried spices, leather and both blackberry and raspberry-like fruit characteristics. It’s fully mature and I’d opt for drinking bottles over the coming 7-8 years. Drink 2015-2023.” Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate, Sept 2015
