The 2019 Les Dionnières comes from the more limestone soils on the eastern side of Hermitage and sees mostly used barrels, as the percentage of new oak here has dwindled over the past few years. This dense purple-hued effort has a terrific, already complex bouquet of blueberries, black cherries, herbes de Provence, candied violets, spice, and incense. With full-bodied richness and depth on the palate, it has a ripe, sexy, opulent style, yet underneath all its baby fat, it shows finely polished tannins, wonderful purity, and the class to evolve for two decades.
