I’ve probably rated the l’Ermite Blanc a perfect score more times than any other wine out there, and the 2015 Ermitage l’Ermite Blanc is indeed another perfect wine. It offers a huge nose of buttered citrus, charcoal, liquid rocks, honey, and even a background meatiness that’s something to behold. This carries to a full-bodied, powerful, concentrated white that has good acidity, an incredible sense of minerality, and an almost red wine-like level of structure. It’s going to see its 50th birthday in fine form and is another magical white from the genius of Michel Chapoutier. Bravo!
