Ermitage Le Méal by M. Chapoutier is a powerful, single‑parcel Hermitage from the steep, sun‑drenched Méal hillside, where 50‑plus‑year‑old vines dig into warm glacial stones and clay. In red it’s pure Syrah, brooding and deeply colored, with ripe black fruit, smoke and velvety yet massive tannins; in white it’s old‑vine Marsanne, golden and opulent, marrying mineral drive and exotic richness. Both styles are built for decades in the cellar and represent one of the most concentrated, ageworthy expressions of this historic granitic slope.
