Jeb Dunnuck: One of the more charming and forward efforts from
Chave, the 2012 Hermitage sports a mostly opaque purple color to go
with classic creme de cassis and blackberry fruits intermixed with
notions of lead pencil shavings, violets and powdered rocks. Deep,
full-bodied and sumptuously textured, with good freshness, this
pure, elegant Hermitage shows more and more definition and cut with
time in the glass, but never loses it's more fruit forward,
charming profile. I suspect it will drink nicely for most of its
life.
