After seven years in the bottle, this Merlot has aged to bring out fine flavors like dark fruit, and blackberry layered with herbal notes of vanilla spice. Dry and satisfying. — 3 months ago
Bright lemon color with aromas of citrus, stone fruits and flinty floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and lemon citrus with notes of vanilla, white flowers and garden spice. Medium+ finish, vivid acidity ending with vanilla and flinty mineral spice. Nice! — 8 months ago
A big, fat, heavy, tannic Cabernet Sauvignon wearing boxing gloves and sporting a championship belt. Incredibly full but well balanced; vanilla, lighter spice, and maybe tobacco... even leaving a hint of sweeter cherry at the end. Happy spring! — a month ago
Not to be outdone, the 1989 Chave Hermitage Rouge showed more brambles than the ’88 along with other desiccated blue and black fruits. Dried flowers, beef, blood, leather and mushrooms. Every time I have the pleasure of drinking old Chave, I’m reminded that these wines have so much character and there is a reason they are so adored. Lovely with grilled lamb and Moroccan spices. Drink now through 2040. — a month ago
