Chapoutier Ermitage Blanc Cuvee de L'Oree 2000 Northern Rhone "These wines usually flirt with perfection, which is the case with the 2000 Ermitage Cuvee de l'Oree. It boasts an amazing nose of licorice, minerals, acacia flowers, honeysuckle, and a hint of butter. Unctuously-textured and full-bodied, with great intensity and purity, yet remarkably light on its feet, it can be drunk over the next 3-4 years, then forgotten for a decade, after which it will last for 40-50 years." R. Parker, 100 pts. 06/03 6 bottles (owc)
