Paul Jaboulet Aîné La Maison Bleue Hermitage 2022

Description

In spite of its ample concentration and structure, this is an elegant and precise expression of Hermitage. Such a wide spectrum of black and red berries with grilled rosemary and smoke complexity. The ample fine-grained tannins build impressively in the finish, and they need some time to completely harmonize, but they are wrapped in enough richness to already be exciting. From vineyards on the eastern side of the hill of Hermitage. From organically grown grapes. Drink from 2027. Score – 95. (Stuart Pigott, jamessuckling.com, Jan. 7, 2025)
