Lot 218 Details
DOMAINE JEAN-LOUIS CHAVE HERMITAGE 1990

Rhône.
u. 1 x 1cm

Also mature, yet with another level of texture and richness, the 1990 Hermitage is a profound effort that’s drinking perfectly. Voluptuous, yet classy and still refined, with awesome cassis and blackberry fruit, flowers, rose petal and hints of rendered bacon fat, it is full-bodied, textured and layered on the palate, with no hard edges and killer length on the finish. This beauty makes lights go off in my head, and as with the ’91, I’d drink bottles over the coming 4-5 years or so. August 2014 Drink: 2014-2019 WA 98

2 bts.    per lot $2,200 - $2,400

Realised: $2,184
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
