Wijnrecensies
Staggering nose of red fruit with fascinating mineral and meaty undertones. Gigantic concentration on the medium- to full-bodied palate, the power tightly reined in, but nonetheless driving the extremely long and precise finish that has great stony expression. A cuvee of wines from the granitic Les Bressards section of the hill of Hermitage and lower lying vineyards with more clay in the soil. 100% whole cluster fermentation, then bottled unfiltered and unfined. Drink from 2026.

The whole-bunch element is quite marked on the nose currently, and there's good fresh fruit too. Powerful on the palate, this has good intensity and drive, and the whole bunches are quite marked texturally as well. Good length and freshness, with fleshy fruit and a robust, tannic frame. A little more rustic than some Hermitage, but with age this will be very good. Grown on lieux-dits Les Bessards and Les Plantiers.

Rhône enthusiasts know how good the 2022 vintage is chez Sorrel, and the 2022 Hermitage is a superb rendition. Unfurling from the glass with aromas of violets, blackberries, smoke, spices, bay leaf and cedar, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and textured with structured yet delicate tannins with a fleshy texture that's refined, pure and mineral.
