M. Chapoutier Ermitage Le Méal Rouge 2021

From Maison M. Chapoutier in Tain-l’Hermitage, Northern Rhône, the Ermitage Le Méal Rouge 2021 is a refined Syrah from 50-year-old vines on high terraces of shingles and clay in the Le Méal lieu-dit. Hand-harvested from organic and biodynamic vineyards with 100% destemming, it’s aged 14 months in concrete and used oak barrels, offering a deep garnet hue with vibrant complexity.

Tasting Notes

A powerful, elegant red with rich fruit and mineral finesse, showcasing Hermitage’s terroir.
The nose reveals wild berries, red cherry, and cassis, with hints of aromatic herbs, smoke, and candied flowers. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and sappy, with bold tannins, vibrant acidity, and flavors of black fruit, spice, and a long, bright finish.
