@Delectable Wine this is Hermitage Blanc made of 100% Marsanne.
My first Hermitage Blanc, from a very good 2012 vintage.
Ripe pear, honeysuckle, bruised apple, white floral, thyme, and lovey lightly oxidative note. Medium to full body. Medium acidity but sufficient to balance the waxy texture. Very elegant.
About 1000 bottles made.

Well balanced Hermitage. Old world Syrah at its best.

Aug 22nd, 2021Wasn’t familiar with the producer but very pleased with the bottle. Concern over a slight effervescence was no concern at all as it burned off after decanting. Well balanced with a spicy finish (white pepper). Crushed cherries on the palate. Low alcohol wine made for food. The wine list at Voyseys at the Kiawah Island Club always has great wines at extremely fair prices.
