Note di degustazione
This wine threw lots of sediment and had an unbelievable funky, burnt rubber/screwed up nose. Once past the nose though, the palate was surprisingly good. Medium to full bodied and fairly smooth. I liked this more and more the longer it sat in the glass.

The 1997 Hermitage La Sizeranne possesses huge amounts of tannin, some of which is vegetal and green. The wine is dry and structured, with a tough finish. Michel Chapoutier feels it is the finest La Sizeranne made since 1990, but my tasting notes are at odds with that position. The color is impressively saturated, but the wine is pinched and compressed, particularly in the finish. I would like to have another look at this wine after it has been bottled.
