Day discovering the hill of Hermitage - walked to the top and explored the different terroirs, visited the famous chapelle, then tasting of Jaboulet and Chapoutier wines in Tain.

Pale gold. Lemon zest, stone fruit, almonds, hazelnuts, marzipan, vanilla. Developing. Dry, medium (+) acidity, high alcohol, full body, pronounced flavours - marzipan, pineapple, honey, mineral, long finish. Outstanding, already drinking well, but no doubt will improve with time.
