Chapoutier Ermitage Le Méal 2017 (100 RP) 75cl
R. Parker - Wine Advocate - 100/100 Sempre na parte mais antiga das propriedades de Chapoutier, na colina Hermitage, o Ermitage le Méal 2017 é um deslumbre total. As notas de creme de framboesa permanecem frescas e animadas por toda parte, acompanhadas de notas de mirtilo, especiarias e baunilha, enquanto os taninos são sedosos, a sensação na boca é generosa e a impressão geral é de grande sedução e elegância.
