Tasting Notes
The 2019 Hermitage Blanche is rich, powerful, and beautifully complex, offering aromas of white peach, apricot, lemon curd, and quince layered with notes of honey, toasted hazelnut, acacia flower, and subtle spice. The palate is full-bodied and textured with remarkable concentration balanced by vibrant acidity and mineral tension. Layers of stone fruit, citrus, and savoury complexity unfold across a long, structured finish with exceptional depth and aging potential.
