Succeeding founding winemaker Michel Salgues in 2002, Arnaud Weyrich raises the bar with this bottling, the highest-scoring L’Ermitage to date. He used the best lots from the estate’s nearly 600 acres of vines. Portions of this roughly 50-50 blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir went through malolactic conversion and were aged in large French oak casks to add texture and richness. For additional complexity, barrel-aged reserve wines from 2007 were added, making up 4 percent of the cuvée, which spent five years on the lees prior to disgorgement." - #5 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2019
"Luxurious and layered, this nicely mature wine has a broad range of complex aromas and flavors, from fig to mushroom to butter and baking spices that ride a supple texture and linger for a long finish. The very fine bead, plush texture and a creamy richness that verges on sweetness are practically irresistible. Best through 2025." - 97 points, Wine Enthusiast
