"Clean as a whistle and made from 25 per cent Chardonnay, 25 per cent Pinot Noir and 50 per cent Pinot Meunier, this is the perfect apéritif wine. The perky acidity and oodles of verve will slice through all number of tricky canapés, and it is a design classic with oysters. Fantastic value, too, Dumangin’s wines are all great value."

It would be fair to say that the Côtes de Thongue: Domaine Les Filles de Septembre 'Tradition' has been our 'find' of the past 5 years. We chanced upon this crowd-pleasing blend of Merlot, Carignan and Grenache while tootling around near Beziers. This garrigue-scented, juicy red is now one of our best sellers; think Bordeaux meets the Languedoc.

Typically the Chave Hermitage blanc exhibits diverse aromas of apricots, honeysuckle, white peaches and grilled nuts and an equally complex palate of candied citrus fruits, honey, vanilla, almonds and minerals underscored by a fine acidity which imparts its great longevity. This is a wine that can ‘close down’ and become somewhat mute in adolescence (at around 5-7 years of age) but that then re-emerges at around 10 years-old showing even greater concentration and complexity.

The 1987 white Hermitage is light bodied, and an excellent, round, ripe wine with an attractive honeyed, peachlike bouquet intertwined with the smell of spring flowers (acacias?). In the mouth, the wine is medium- to full-bodied, with beautiful clarity, impeccable cleanliness, and a long, rich finish. It is delicious. 87/100 Robert Parker

The 1989 Hermitage Blanc is low in acidity, expansive, and weighty, and makes for a huge, chewy mouthful of white wine. The honeyed, somewhat unctuous personality of the wine is more dominant in the 1989 than in the 1988, but there remains the head-turning, beautiful, flowery aromas, sensational concentration, super ripeness, and low acidity. Chave believes the latter component is always a characteristic of the greatest Hermitage vintages. 92/100 Robert Parker

"A retasting of the 1998 Hermitage blanc confirmed its brilliant quality. It is an elegant, floral-scented, structured white Hermitage. It boasts fabulous concentration, but is less flattering and precocious than either the 1999 or 2000. 92/100." Robert Parker

"I tasted component parts of the 2001 Hermitage blanc. Aromas of acacia flowers, honeysuckle, and citrus were followed by a medium to full-bodied white with loads of glycerin as well as heady fruit and alcohol. Elegant, medium to full-bodied, and crisper, it is more obviously backward than the 2000."

The 2002 Hermitage blanc exhibits abundant amounts of acacia flowers, honeyed citrus, and a hint of orange marmalade in a ripe, elegant, medium-bodied style. Because of its low acidity, it is best consumed during its first 5-7 years of life. What Chave accomplished in the extremely challenging 2002 vintage is unquestionably noteworthy. Not because of tiny yields and small grapes, but due to Chave’s decision to eliminate every grape except the very best, 2002 is a small crop. 90/100 Robert Parker

"The exuberant 2007 Hermitage Blanc reveals notes of petroleum, crushed rocks, earth, white currants and peaches, an unctuous texture, high glycerin and good acidity. This big, thick white Hermitage will not be as long lived as the 2009, but for drinking over the next two decades, it is impossible to resist. Jean-Louis and Gerard Chave opened a bottle of the 2003 Hermitage Blanc to give me an idea of how this vintage is aging. This monumental offering, which flirts with perfection, has virtually no acidity and is aging beautifully. The Chaves believe it is a repeat of what Gerard’s father made
