M. Chapoutier Ermitage L'Ermite Rouge 2021

From Maison M. Chapoutier in Tain-l’Hermitage, Northern Rhône, the Ermitage L'Ermite Rouge 2021 is a refined Syrah from 70-year-old vines on granitic soils around the Hermitage chapel. Hand-harvested from organic and biodynamic vineyards with some stem inclusion, it’s aged 18 months in demi-muids (25% new), offering a deep purple hue with vibrant complexity.

Tasting Notes

A powerful, elegant red with rich fruit and mineral finesse, showcasing Hermitage’s terroir.
The nose reveals blackberry, boysenberry, and crushed violets, with hints of crushed stone, liquid smoke, and pepper. On the palate, it’s medium- to full-bodied, with fine tannins, vibrant acidity, and flavors of black fruit, spice, and a long, mineral finish.

Awards and Accolades

The 2021 Ermitage L'Ermite Rouge earned 95–97 points from Jeb Dunnuck for its astounding tannin structure and purity. V2Vin awarded 95 points for its explosive finish, and Vinous gave 94–96 points for its bright, crunchy texture.
