Opulent yet impeccably balanced, the 2016 Guigal Ermitage Ex Voto Blanc layers ripe pear, white peach and melon with warm baking spice, vanilla cream and a deep, stony undertow. The texture is broad, silky and mouth‑coating, but there’s a core of tension and power that makes the wine feel composed rather than heavy, promising even greater nuance with time in bottle.
Lobster poached in butter; Roast Bresse chicken with morel cream sauce; Seared scallops with parsnip purée

E. Guigal’s Ermitage “Ex-Voto” Blanc is the estate’s flagship white from the famed Hermitage hill—made only in exceptional years from old-vine Marsanne (with a small portion of Roussanne) grown on parcels like Les Murets and L’Hermite. Fermented and aged extensively in 100% new oak (often 24–30 months) with malolactic conversion, it delivers a rich, honeyed, lanolin- and wax‑like texture layered with orchard and stone-fruit, toasted‑nut and saline/mineral notes, and the concentration and acidity to reward decades of cellaring.
