Why We're Buying
“Extravagantly rich.” “Utterly seamless.” “Voluptuously textured.” These are just a few of the phrases used to describe M. Chapoutier Les Greffieux. The dynamic cuvée is flawless out of the bottle and comes with a 30+ year aging potential. Wine critic Jeb Dunnuck called the 2006 vintage "the finest wine I have ever tasted from Les Greffieux.”
Critics Scores
Wine Spectator
Dense for the vintage, but with good restraint, as the core of lightly mulled plum, blackberry and black currant fruit rolls along, flecked with dried anise and mint notes. Shows a licorice root underpinning on the finish, with a frank loamy accent. Best from 2018 through 2030. 10 cases imported.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2014 Ermitage Les Greffieux offers a big mouthful of fruit as well as a more gamey profile in its black olive, beef blood, smoke and ripe dark fruits. This cuvée comes from the middle of the slope (which is slightly higher up in the Greffieux parcel) and is aged in 20 new oak. Drink this full-bodied, meaty, rich and unctuous beauty anytime over the coming two decades.
