the wine has remarkable richness and depth of flavor leading to a 60-second finish

Despite its precociousness and up-front style

I will comment on all the single vineyards

80-year-old vineyard producing tiny yields

capable of aging well for at least another decade

Chave Hermitage - 2001 (750ml) 2002 the wine has remarkable richness95 points Robert Parker This under the radar vintage of Chave's Hermitage continues to impress every time. The 2001 Hermitage offers ethereal hints of violets and dried spices on the nose, set against a complex backdrop of redcurrants and green olives. Tasted at the domaine, this bottle came across as exceptionally youthful and still somewhat firm, capable of aging well for at least another decade. Joe Czerwinski Jan 20, 2022 94 points Vinous Media
