"Chappaz's iconic, yellow-golden colored 2021 Grain Ermitage opens with a deep, elegant and complex, intensely aromatic bouquet of ripe stone fruits intertwined with saline and stony as well as lemony and candied grapefruit notes. Full-bodied, dense and saline on the palate, with perfectly ripe fruit intermingled with vanilla notes, this is a rich and powerful, quite fiery but also elegant and juicy Marsanne Blanche from 100+-year-old vines with fine, mineral acidity, delicate tannins and a long, complex and structured finish. 14.2% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in Zurich, February 2023."
