2015 M. Chapoutier Ermitage Les Greffieux Rouge USA 25% Merlot"The 2015 Ermitage Les Greffieux comes from vines located at the base of the hill, just under the le Mal Vineyard. Blackberries, blueberries, liquid violet, dusty minerality and hints of beef blood all flow to a ripe, sexy, voluptuous, heavenly effort that's overflowing with fruit and richness. Concentrated, ripe, sexy and just incredible stuff, it will rival the 2006 as the finest vintage to date from this vineyard. Slightly closed and backward now,
