The 2008 Hermitage Blanc is fragrant and delicate with plenty of the beeswax, cooked apple, almond, chamomile, dried apricot and tangerine notes that develop in this wine with age. Tonight the 2008 is a touch lithe in feel. It doesn’t quite have the textural depth and viscosity of some vintages, but it is remarkably fresh, poised and elegant. What a treat. 94 points
