“The wine of the vintage (and Ill include all the wines of the northern Rhne, red and white in that grouping) is the 2014 Ermitage lErmite Blanc. Always made from 100% Marsanne that comes from the granite soils of the lHermite lieu-dit, it was aged 11 months in 25% new demi-muids before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. Its medium-gold color is followed by a heavenly bouquet of liquid rock, hazelnut, caramelized pineapples, stone fruits and quince. Thick, unctuous, full-bodied, thrillingly pure and laser focused with a dry, blockbuster finish that just wont quit, it needs 2-3 years of cellaring and will drink nicely over the following three or more decades. Drink 2018-2048.” 100/100 Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2015
