Ermitage Ex Voto 2005 (75 CL)

Made in the style of the 2010. the massive 2005 Hermitage Ex Voto offers searing minerality and crushed-rock nuances as well as tons of black raspberries. licorice. toasted spice and charcoal. Full-bodied. incredibly concentrated. with a wall of sweet tannin. this behemoth nevertheless stays nicely focused. pure and classic on the finish. Give it another 4-5 years and enjoy bottles over the following 30-40+ years. (JD. 9/2015)
