2009 Hermitage Rouge

The 2009 Hermitage (which comes from Sorrel’s three parcels in Les Bessards, Les Greffieux and Les Plantiers) possesses supple tannin along with lots of red and black fruit, licorice, acacia flower and camphor characteristics. Full-bodied, with good acidity and a forward style, it begs for consumption over the next 12-15 years. Importer: J.O.A. Imports, McLean, VA; www.jaowineimports.com
