More blackcurrants, black olives, garrigue, and smoke game notes emerge from the 2017 Ermitage Les Greffieux, one of the more opulent, seductive and sexy Hermitage in the lineup. Full-bodied, powerful, and structured, it has a smoking good mid-palate, beautiful tannins, and a great finish. There are just 350 cases produced, but it’s a stunning Hermitage to drink over the coming 25-30 years.
Cask sample.
Sweet black fruit with a strong tar and menthol note on the finish. Garrigue herbs on the palate, with a touch of floral lift too – this is very immediate and appealing already. Rather feminine for Hermitage.
