DOMAINE JEAN-LOUIS CHAVE HERMITAGE BLANC 1995 (1)

Rhône.
u. 1.5 cm. wrinkled label.

The wine is low in acidity, but fabulously rich, with an extraordinary floral, honeysuckle, peach-like fruit character. With awesome intensity and an unctuous texture, this may be the finest white Hermitage Chave has ever produced. It is powerful and extremely showy at present. Given its equilibrium and overall density, this wine should last 20+ years. October 1997 WA 94
