Description
L'Hermitage Chevalier de Stérimberg takes its name from the small chapel built in 1235 by the knight Gaspard de Stérimberg, with the blessing of Queen Blanche of Castille.
The Roussanne (35%) and Marsanne (65%) grapes which feature in the blend of this Hermitage are planted on limestone/clay and sandy/stony hillsides.
The grapes are pressed immediately after harvesting, to minimise the risk of oxidation.
Traditional vinification methods and 10-12 months' maturation in wood and on the lees lend the wine great refinement.
Tasting Notes
It reveals big, sweet, waxy, honeysuckle and rose petal notes, oily, full-bodied flavors, loads of fruit, good acidity, and a long finish.
