Marc Sorrel, Hermitage Greal Vintage:2005 vivid wine from the first

vivid wine from the first taste

but I look forward to doing so the next time around

and with respect to the 1995

A point of acidity adds levity and length

This is the first time they used the vats

Marc Sorrel, Hermitage Greal Vintage:2005 vivid wine from the firstCrme de cassis and blackberry aromas sufficient to fill the room emerge on the nose of Sorrel's 2017 Hermitage Le Greal. Full bodied, rich, and supple, this is a lush, creamy wine that shows incredible intensity of flavor without excess weight. Underneath all of that plush fruit is a stony core of structure and myriad spicy complexities that should sustain it for decades to come.
