M. Chapoutier Ermitage Le Méal Blanc 2011

From Maison M. Chapoutier in Tain-l’Hermitage, Northern Rhône, the Ermitage Le Méal Blanc 2011 is a refined Marsanne from 50-year-old vines on south-facing, shingle and clay terraces in the Le Méal lieu-dit. Hand-harvested from organic and biodynamic vineyards, it’s aged 10–12 months in oak casks with lees stirring, offering a golden hue with vibrant complexity.

Tasting Notes

A rich, elegant white with mineral and floral finesse, showcasing Hermitage’s terroir.
The nose reveals honeysuckle, buttered peach, and tropical fruit, with hints of white flowers, licorice, and mineral. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and voluptuous, with vibrant acidity, a silky texture, and flavors of melon, spice, and a long, mineral finish.
