1989 M. Chapoutier Ermitage lErmite
DAY 2 INT'L VIVINO CHAPTER
I'm not a Hermitage fan, especially young ones. But later in the day I drank a hermitage that blew all the best Bordeaux off the table. This one was choking, sharp, matured and smells like blood on the nose. Very meaty, beefy, good acidity and loads of red fruits. Would love to see how it develops in another decade or two after it has toned down in the heavy style like the JL Chave Hermitage 78 that blows me off completely.
