2015 E. Guigal Ermitage Ex-Voto Rhone, France
$455.00
Only made in top vintages, Ex-Voto is Guigal’s masterwork of Hermitage Syrah. The 2015—approaching its 10th birthday—is just entering its long drinking window. Old vine fruit (50–90 years) from lieux-dits like Bessards and Greffieux is fermented in stainless, then aged 40 months in new oak. Monumental and dense but precisely constructed, this is all black fruit, graphite, smoke, and spice—Hermitage at full volume.
