95 WA. "The sweetly fruited, downright sexy 2014 Hermitage Le Méal offers plenty of raspberry jam, toasted bread and floral notes in a ripe, expansive, mouth-filling style. Like all the wines here, the tannin quality is incredible. You can drink this today with ample pleasure, but it will keep . . . . Not enough can be said about the quality that consistently comes from this estate. From the top to the bottom of the range, you can’t go wrong . . . . Looking at the 2014s reviewed here, these shine for their elegance and purity, and are certainly some of the most concentrated wines in the vintage." Wine Advocate #228, Dec 2016 |
