1989 Domaine Jean-Louis Chave Hermitage - France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Hermitage (3/11/2009)
Dinner at Coquette. Dark garnet in the glass with slight bricking at the very edges. A classic '89 Chave with the richness, the sweet fruit, the minerality and the long finish. Well integrated tannins when drunk with the food but the tannins stuck out every so slightly when the wine was drunk on it’s own. Throwing lots of sediment. A Pointe today with many years of enjoyment ahead for well stored bottles. 50+13+14+9+9 = 95 (95 pts.)
