Deep glowing amber/tawny. Very rich, slightly gingery nose with lots of spice and a smoky edge. Decidedly low acid but still refreshing. Nearing the end of its life and definitely not for those who don't understand white Hermitage but of great interest to those who do. (JR)

The 1992 Chante-Alouette displays the tell-tale tangerine, honey, acacia flower-scented nose, full body, admirable power and intensity, a thick, unctuous texture, and low acidity. It is the most syrupy, layered, and concentrated of the cuvees of Chante-Alouette. Anticipated maturity: now-2002. Last tasted 6/96.
