Sipping Fine Wine

9.3

History of Chapoutier family dates back to the early 19th century when current owner Michel Chapoutier’s great-, great-, great-grandfather Marius purchased estate & famous l’Hermitage vineyards. Medium Ruby with aromas of rich red/black fruits and spice. On the palate raspberry, cherry & black currant flavors with notes of oak. Firm tannins, well balanced ending with fruit, spice and cedar. Very nice! Tasting Sample. Has lots of room to bottle evolve. — 4 years ago

History of Chapoutier family dates back to early 19th century when current owner Michel Chapoutier’s great-, great-, great-grandfather Marius purchased estate & famous l’Hermitage vineyards. Deep Purple (with a little smoke on the water), 100% Grenache with aromas of dark fruit and complex exotic spice. Plum, berry & current flavors with nutty tobacco develops into sweet licorice. Tannins a bit grippy but will soften, lingering, balance ending with fruit and spice. Nice!

This is absolutely fantastic in '14. Slightly leesy and mineral with beautiful, well integrated acidity that lasts on the long finish. — 8 years ago

Богатый сильный ежевичный аромат с уходом в специи и мускус (немного). На вкус черноплодка с черноплодными танинами.
Аккуратное и вкусное вино, пусть простое, но лёгкое и не без изящества. — 8 years ago

2014 Chenin Blanc. Briny, honeyed, with lots of pure Chenin funk. Rich golden color, full on the palate, rich and satisfying. Would like to see just a touch more acidity. — 9 years ago

Getting into red Burgundy and started with this bottle. Opened last night and decanted about 4pm. While still young, has real potential for aging and depth. Red fruit and dried herbs. — 5 years ago

There’s a unique spice profile that marks Marius Shiraz. I do love it. Long long finish, tannin has a nice savoury grip balanced with dark black and red fruits. Florals in both flavour and smell, so much going on. A big step up from the 2014 Simpatico. Roger Pike has called it a day (https://rogerpike.com.au/news/), and at this point without any clear succession or sale 2019 will be his last vintage :( — 7 years ago
