Bottle (12)
"Deep dark ruby in color with some amber at the edge, it has a profound concentration of ripe, smoky, berry fruit and Asian spices, full body, exceptional depth and length, as well as a formidable tannin level." (93 pts. Robert Parker, Rhone Book, Jan. 1997)
"The 1983 L'Hermitage is a vintage I have encountered a couple of times before, though not for some years. Gerard Chave would have made this. Now four decades old, the 1983 has a wonderful bouquet that has retained all its vigor, quite Burgundy-like with wilted rose petals that infuse the shimmering dark cherry and raspberry fruit. Hints of rooibos, Earl Grey and clove emerge with time. The palate shows an impressive body and gentle grip; the tannins have melted in recent years. It's saline with just a distant tang of green olive. There is a touch of meatiness towards the finish that is extremely well-defined and surfeited with charm and character. Maybe it's a little rustic compared to recent vintages, yet that is just part of the allure." (93 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, Jan. 2024)
