Lot 181 Details
M. CHAPOUTIER ERMITAGE LE MÉAL BLANC 2011
Rhône.

Surprisingly, I preferred the 2011 Ermitage le Meal Blanc over the 2012 on this occasion and it showed a more flamboyant, sexy style in its caramelized pineapple, tropical, honeyed and floral personality. Big, rich and decadent, with fabulous fruit intensity and length, this rock star flirts with perfection and will keep for another 3-4 decades. Tasted September 2015. Drink: 2015-2051 99 WA


6 bts. per lot $1,900 - $2,200
