Similar to the '12 and showing the generosity and warmth of this site, the 2011 Ermitage le Meal is another sexy wine that's just hard to resist. Full-bodied and concentrated, it's slightly more red fruit-driven with black raspberries, crushed flowers, sweet spice and roasted herb aromas and flavors all emerging from the glass. One of the denser, more concentrated 2011s out there, it still shows the 2011 extroverted and straight-up hedonistic character and will drink well for another 20+ years. Score: 98 Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2016-2036+ 01 September 2015 |

Mulled plum, loganberry and blackberry fruit is melded together in this red, studded with anise, briar and singed mesquite notes. A light tarry backdrop frames the long finish. Best from 2015 through 2030. Score: 95 James Molesworth, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2015-2030 31 May 2014 |

The 2011 Ermitage Le Meal exhibits aromas and flavors of graphite, beef blood/steak tartare, blackberry liqueur, acacia flowers and scorched earth. It is full-bodied, dense and concentrated. Score: 94 - 97 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 01 December 2012 |
