Hermitage--Vintage 1978
Rhône, Chave
Levels: bottom neck or better; one damp stained and torn label
"Have I been too stingy? For me, this is Chave's single finest wine in recent vintages. It remains an infant, so drinking it now is, I suspect, infanticide. Memorizing its aromas, its flavors, its textures, and its length is a quick education in what great wine is all about. Powerful, yet harmonious, staggeringly rich and deeper, this wine is loaded. Save it for the turn of the century." Robert Parker, Wines of the Rhône Valley, 1997
