Hermitage Rouge--Vintage 1996
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: J.-L.Chave
In original carton
Tasting note: The 1996 red Hermitage possesses the vintage's tangy acidity, as well as a saturated ruby/purple colour, and copious quantities of smoke, cassis, fennel, and minerals in the moderately intense, still young aromatics. The wine displays beautiful balance, outstanding purity, and a medium-bodied, rich, elegant personality. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2030. Robert Parker. Wine Advocate 121 Feb 1999
