M. Chapoutier, Ermitage Le Meal 2008, 75cl
"A cool, rainy and difficult year in the Northern Rhone, the 2008 Ermitage le Meal is still beautiful and has a semi-opaque, ruby color, complex notes of spiced meats, saddle leather, incense and sweet red fruits, and medium to full-bodied richness on the palate. Elegant, with fine tannin and excellent purity of fruit, enjoy it anytime over the coming decade. Drink 2015-2025."Â Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate, Sept 2015
