JL Chave Selection Hermitage 'Blanche' 2017

The Chave family has been tending vines on the Hermitage hill since the 1400s. Many of their bottles are some of the most sought after from the Northern Rhone, yet their négociant label delivers more accessible exemplars like this bold, beeswaxy blend of Marsanne and Roussane, two classic regional varieties. The fruit is from the lieu-dit Maison Blanche, set upon that famous hill. An unbeatable opportunity!
