2023 Hermitage Rouge “La Pierrelle”

Barruol / Lynch
Discount Eligible $103.00
AT CART MAX

It’s been said that Hermitage should taste like…Hermitage. While there may not be an official definition of what that means exactly, those who have been fortunate enough to experience truly great Hermitage might have an idea. For me, this vintage of La Pierrelle really defines it: expansive savory aromas, meaty, broad, velvety tannins, grandness, ripeness and freshness, all at once. Only in Hermitage!

Inspiring Thirst

A good doctor prescribed the wine of Nuits-Saint-Georges to the Sun King, Louis XIV, when he suffered an unknown maladie. When the king’s health was restored the tasty remedy enjoyed a vogue at court. Lord, send me a doctor like that!
