Tasting NotesWine Spectator: 94 Points
Fleshy and inviting, with a core of plum, boysenberry and raspberry pâte de fruit notes, pushed from behind by a lively anise edge. Shows ample singed wood spice, dried bay and black tea details through the finish, which has nicely embedded acidity. Drink now through 2027. 200 cases imported. — JM

The 2013 Hermitage La Sizeranne is gorgeous and might just be the best vintage of this cuvee to date, when all is said and done. Offering beautiful minerality in its cassis, black raspberry, crushed rock, and licorice aromas and flavors, it’s medium to full-bodied and has plenty of tannin and integrated acidity -- all of which will allow it to drink nicely for 10-15 years. They’ve been experimenting with the elevage for this cuvee and it’s paying off.
