Hermitage Blanc, Chante Alouette--Vintage 2004
Rhône. French-bottled: Chapoutier
In original carton
Tasting note: Perhaps the best cuvée he has ever made of Ermitage Chante Alouette is the 2004, a fabulous vintage for the whites of the northern Rhône. This wine competes attractively with the single vineyard whites. The wine has wonderful notes of honeysuckle, licorice, quince, and white currants in an almost thick, juicy style yet buttressed by considerable acidity. It is a gorgeous wine with terrific intensity and richness. 94 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #170, April 2007
