M Chapoutier, Ermitage L'Ermite Blanc 2019

"Hints of crushed stone and subtle oak appear on the nose, backed by waves of honeyed pear and pineapple, plus enough invigorating citrus to provide a sense of freshness. Full-bodied and rich without being heavy, this has come into its own, being incredibly long, balanced and ethereal on the finish. Amazing stuff!" - Wine Advocate

"The granitic freshness really helps in this vintage and you can somehow smell the saltiness. Intense petrichor, it's floral but with pear and a touch of quince. There is salt spray freshness in the place of acidity and a great mineral, fresh drive underneath." - Decanter
