Maison Nicolas Perrin - Hermitage 2010
Ratings: Robert Parker 91/100, Bettane & Desseauve 16/20, RVF 15/20
“This exceptional 2010 Hermitage Blanc (a barrel-blend of 70% Marsanne and 30% Roussanne) offers lovely notes of marzipan, crème brûlée, honeysuckle, rose water, and fresh fruit, with beautiful minerality and acidity. Drink this great white wine over the next 7 to 10 years. ” (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)

About the estate:
“This fledgling wine merchant was founded through a partnership between the Perrin family (of Château de Beaucastel in Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and Nicolas Jaboulet (former director of the family-owned Paul Jaboulet et Fils). Two heavyweights from the southern and northern parts of the valley, they produce a small collection of wines from the north. The wines are selected from the barrel before malolactic fermentation at the growers’ estates; aging is then completed at Perrin, near Orange. This is followed by blending. The style of the whites is precise, dry, and well-structured, offering a solid mid-range quality. To date, we prefer the vibrancy and depth of the reds.”
