2005 M. Chapoutier, Ermitage Rouge, l'Ermite, Case of 6 btls

The crown jewel of the Rhône has landed. And it’s the only 2005 L’Ermite 6-pack OWC available in the U.S.!

From the granite-capped summit of Hermitage Hill, Chapoutier’s oldest Syrah vines (80+ years) give birth to the most ageworthy of his single-vineyard icons. In 2005, a vintage hailed across the globe, L’Ermite reached mythic status.

Critical Acclaim:

99+ Points | Robert Parker: “100-year wine… Monumental!”

98 Points | Wine Spectator: “Supersleek, racy… should age beautifully.”

WineSearcher.com: “Legendary vintage”

Decanter: “Benchmark vintage for Syrah”

L’Ermite is Chapoutier at full throttle - power and poise in equal measure. Expect bright, lifted aromas of peppery red fruit, violet, and crushed stone. Silky on the palate, yet firmly structured, with a finish that seems to echo for minutes. Tertiary complexity is just starting to emerge, but the core remains youthful, vibrant, and built for decades.
