This wine impressed me over several tastings

and one of the most pure Nebbiolo expressions

Winemaking is moving away from 500-liter barrels to embrace larger foudre

This tapers off clean to purple-toned fruits and inner florals

2020 | Paul Jaboulet Aine Hermitage 'La Maison Bleue' | Rhone Bordeaux Blend White This wine impressed me overDark ruby in colour with purple reflections and subtle brightening on the ochre rim. On the nose aromas of blueberry, blackberry, black cherry, subtle hints of liquorice and nougat, darkly mineral with fine oak spice and sweet tobacco. The palate is juicy and powerful, full of sweet cherry fruit with ripe, rounded tannins. Chocolatey and accessible with a saline minerality this is already well developed and easy to drink. 95 Pts Falstaff
