Description

DR97 “Twenty years after bottling, this is in the perfect sweet spot between fruit and developed leather and spice aromas. It feels young on the palate still, with defined black cherry characters. Pure, elegant and just about full-bodied. With fruity acidity and good tension, it’s still juicy while also being silky and fine with a long, meaty finish. A very classic Hermitage with perfect balance, ready to drink now.” MW for DR Oct 2021

JS96 “Super chalky nose with peach blossom and orange blossom leading to peach, orange citrus and orange peel flavors. This still has a little of the flesh and puppy fat on the palate. Still building. Extremely complex and very powerful.” JS Jul 2017
