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. — 8 years ago

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! — 7 years ago

Honey on opening, opens up to citrus blossom, lemon and lime, white flowers. Slight wet stone minerality. Chalky acidity and as it warms a lovely rich mouth feel with super crisp finish. — 9 years ago

Vintage 1991 | The year with the devastating 20 April frosts… but Montrose escaped because it lies close to the river. Very much alive and kicking. Italian roofs colour. Classic smell with figs, cedar, leather, harmonious taste, vibrant. Happy! | With Chateaubriand | at restaurant Cas Pikaar in Hilvarenbeek — 4 years ago
Brilliant young light zesty Sauvignon Blanc. Nose: yellow apples, green peaches, celery, acacia flowers, kiwi and pineapple notes. Taste is perfectly balanced with fruity sourness and sweetness. Great choice for hot summer day with fresh oysters or clams, or light vegetables salads. — 5 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. — 7 years ago
Still very good after 10 years. Élégance and length. — 8 years ago

This 2022 is next level. Have had several Rhône whites recently and this is a standard bearer. So focused. About editing and restraint with subtle hints of this and that without hitting you over the with anything. Dominated by Rousanne which explains its elegance and subtlety. Has a honeyed fresh slightly poached apricot and apple combo with whiffs of baking spices. Great Lacey quartz structure. Beguiling.. perfect with scallops, acorn squash and rice pilaf — 7 months ago
