Hermitage Les Miaux Ferraton Pere et Fils 2015 (750ML)

92 Points, Joe Czerwinski, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate: “I found hints of charred beef, cinnamon, espresso and black olive on the nose of the 2015 Hermitage Les Miaux. It's a solid, full-bodied wine with moderate tannins and some beefy red fruit, but it lacks the drama of some of Ferraton's other offerings.” 12/17

92 Points, Josh Raynolds, Vinous: “Lurid ruby. Powerful, smoke-accented dark fruit preserve, violet, licorice and cracked pepper aromas develop a hint of olive as the wine opens up. Round and weighty on the palate, offering sweet black currant and cherry pie flavors and a touch of succulent herbs. The peppery note comes back strong on the clinging finish, which is framed by smooth, mounting tannins. While this lush wine checks in at 15% alcohol, I didn't notice it.” 04/18

92 Points, James Sucking: “Dark, dried berries and plums, wrapped in stony minerals, spices and dark pepper. The palate has deep flavors, cast amid fine, assertive tannins. Taut, fresh finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink in 2022.” 08/18
