Domaine Chave Hermitage 2005

In the world of Northern Rhone greatness, Chave is undoubtedly the authority. His Hermitage Rouge is vinified in both stainless steel and open topped casks, undergoing multiple daily punch downs. After one year and a half years, parcels are blended to create the final cuvée, combining seven unique terroirs. Sappy black fruit with notes of leather and earth dominate the palate; will age gracefully for decades.
