Critics Ratings
'Hermitage is another stunning wine from the 2010 vintage' - Jeb Dunnock, Parker's Wine Advocate - 94/100 Points.
'Very rich and round. Quite a majestic but fragrant nose - may be an Ex Voto. Still very firm and almost rigid and dry. Very dense indeed with a dry finish. Good punch, no excess of oak.' - Jancis Robinson MW, 18/20.
'This is well-packed, with alder, anise and black tea notes leading the way for a core of juicy blackberry, plum and raspberry fruit flavors. Delivers a steeped feel through the finish, with a long charcoal thread. This is quietly always one of the smartest buys in high-end Northern Rhône reds. Best from 2016 through 2025.' - Wine Spectator, 94/100
