Producer

Domaine Jean-Louis Chave

No other name in Hermitage is more famous than Jean-Louis Chave's. His family have been winemakersin the northern Rhône Valley since 1481 and have left their trademark by producing year-in and year-out some of the most exemplary, profound wines in the northern Rhône. His Hermitages are particularly noteworthy and are considered by many as the best of the appellation. They are true pinnacles of power though they remain focused, elegant and pure.

Region

Hermitage

Hermitage is a region that produces both red and white wines. Its famous red is made from 100% Syrah while the white is produced from Marsanne and/or Roussanne. A sweeter and very rare white wine is also produced from grapes that have been dried on straw before being pressed. A slighter warmer micro-climate enables Hermitage's red wines to have more ripeness and structure than Côte Rôtie which adds additional power and longevity. As a result, they are usually the most ‘masculine' styled reds in all of the northern Rhône.
