Hermitage--Vintage 1991
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: Chave
Tasting note: The beautifully elegant, stylish 1991 red Hermitage displays an open-knit bouquet of red and black fruits, spices, flowers, and smoke. With excellent richness and medium to full body, this deep, graceful wine should turn out to be slightly richer than the 1987, and perhaps equal to the sumptuous 1982. Anticipated maturity: 1999-2015. Last tasted 6/96. 89 points. Robert Parker, Rhone Book #B3, January 1997
