Had a bottle of this wonderful wine in Malta on Aug 4, 2018. It is just so refreshing with a stake of veal, medium-rear done and some fresh veggies. Just great! — 6 years ago
Mid lemon. Floral aspects to the nose with lime lemon mineral and nuance of dairy. Probably a little bit of butter or cream from the oak. Excellent current drinking with a short term future. Always liked Macon - great QPR. Poor mans White Burgundy. Drank the last glass a day later and the wine had developed lovely honeyed nuances. Macon will become a regular buy for me. — 8 years ago
Very even keeled. No negative steely after taste. Happens to be excellent ice cold on a hot summer day. — 9 years ago
Very complex. Apricot shines through. Tastes of baked cake. Forward, but not too flowery. — 7 years ago

First introduction to the power of J.L. Chave. Dried blueberries and cherries fill the nose followed by a rush of pepper and freshly dried herbs, particularly thyme and rosemary. Dried cranberries and red currants lead the charge on the palate with smoked meat and the earthiness that I love from Rhône style wines right behind. Terrific mouthfeel with the right amount of tannins and acidity, and a long fruit forward finish. Chave’s Hermitage is a top dream wine for me, and this just adds fuel to the fire. — 6 years ago
Oily and beautiful. Not brimming with acidity that will shoot to the stars, but it's softer palate feel is welcomed and very pleasant to sip on. — 7 years ago

Лёгкое и воздушное, с фруктовыми нотками. Chablis в его лучшем проявлении. — 10 years ago

Excellent Northern Rhône tasting through J.L. Chave’s 1989, 1990, 1999, 2004, 2009 Hermitage, as well as the 2014 St. Joseph. ‘90 and ‘09 were my noted favorites. — 5 years ago
