Domaine Chave, Hermitage
The Chave family is the reference for beautiful Syrah wines from the Northern Rhone’s Hermitage hill. There is no secret to why the Chave wines are so great. As often with top quality domaines the recipe sounds so simple: low-yielding old vines, a late harvest producing physiologically ripe fruit, virtually no intervention and no filtration before bottling. A tasting in the Chave cellar of wines from the various Syrah plots is certainly one of the great moments in the life of a wine professional or demanding amateur. The white Hermitage comes from three separate plots of old vines and is a blend of 85% Marsanne and 15% Roussanne. It’s the finest white Hermitage of the appellation.
The red Hermitage is a blend of six different parcels on the Hermitage hill. Each with its own character, it’s the sum of the parts that turns out to be more interesting than the individual components. In the finest years, Chave’s red Hermitage is an immortal wine that begins life slowly, but never fails to impress after 7-10 years in bottle.
In this Alpina Jubilee sale we offer a small range of red Hermitage including the legenadary 2003 vintage, but we also have a range of white Chave. Often underestimated but when served always impressive. Domaine Chave's wines are every year sold out and only allocated in limited quantites, therefore this is a unique chance to acquire some superbly aged wines.
