Robert Parker's Wine Advocate : As usual, the 2019 Hermitage remained largely as separate components at the time of my visit. Some pre-blending had occurred, so I tasted a combination of Beaumes and Péléat, as well as components from L'Ermite, Méal, and Bessards. Uniformly full-bodied, concentrated, and long, with rich, velvety tannins, dark-fruit flavors (cassis, blueberries, boysenberries), and hints of crushed stone and licorice, comparisons with 2003 aren't unreasonable.
Blend : 100% Syrah.
