Robert Parker

Yohan Castaing

Wild dark berries, dark cherries, spices, rose and lilac mingled with lovely peppery notes introduce the 2022 Ermitage Les Greffieux, a dense and concentrated, full-bodied and structured wine with a fleshy core of fruit, a harmonious, balanced palate and a long, mineral and peppery finish, despite a slightly green touch. Matured 80% in large barrels, 25% of which are new, this is somber yet balanced Hermitage.

Vinous

Nicolas Greinacher

The magnificent 2022 Ermitage Les Greffieux opens with enticing aromas of graphite, black cherry, cedar, red plum, and earthy nuances. Clear-cut and savory, the 2022 delivers concentrated fruit notes with great energy and focus. More full- than medium-bodied, it’s remarkably balanced and should be drinking beautifully by 2027.

Wine Spectator

Kristen Bieler

This brooding red opens up with time in the glass, revealing an inviting, smoky, meaty core of ripe plum and black currant layered with smoldering graphite and singed alder. Powered by savory energy and concentration, this shows impressive purity, with a pleasing chewiness to the substantial finish, kept in check by iron-edged tannins and wafting with pretty dried lavender and herbs. Best from 2027 through 2042. 6 cases imported.

The finesse and aromatic expression of an Ermitage Red wine

The Estate

Founded in Tain-L’Hermitage in 1808, the Maison M. Chapoutier is now regarded as a benchmark among the greatest names in the Rhône Valley.

Michel Chapoutier, winegrower and wine merchant, has guided this family enterprise to excellence, vintage after vintage. The house’s wines are renowned for their refinement and outstanding quality, praised by the most demanding enthusiasts around the world. Michel Chapoutier also holds the world record for perfect scores (100/100) awarded by American critic Robert Parker.

The Vineyard

Mathilde Chapoutier, Michel’s daughter, now continues the family’s work, overseeing a vineyard of over 350 hectares, covering the most renowned appellations of the north and south of the Rhône Valley.

The Wine

The cuvée Les Greffieux, named after the first owner of the plot, is an Ermitage wine made from a single grape variety. Located at the foot of the Hermitage hill, the plot rests on a terrace of glacial alluvium. The subsoil, composed of deep clay, provides finesse and aromatic richness, while the rolled pebbles, retaining heat, impart concentration and structure to the wine.
