Description
The generosity of Crozes-Hermitage is known to lovers of the cru wines of the Rhône based on the noble Syrah grape. The Crozes-Hermitage is located in the northern Rhône appellation which offers the greatest wealth of expression. In terms of surface area and number of winemakers, it is the primary vineyard area of Cave de Tain (16 times larger than the Hermitage vineyard), where we encounter two types of soils: granite and galets (small surface stones) in infinite combinations:
- gravelly and filtering soils of the Rhône or the Isère in the south
- predominantly granite soils in a fresher climate in the north
Crozes-Hermitage extends around the hill of the Hermitage and Cave de Tain has the most beautiful vineyards there. The Crozes-Hermitage has been classified as AOC for red and white wines since 1937. Important rules are that the alcohol percentage must be at least 10% and the yield must not exceed 45 hectoliters per hectare. The red wine must consist of at least 85% of the Syrah grape and a maximum of 15% of Marsanne and Roussanne. The white wine must be composed of Marsanne and Roussanne.
The Cave de Tain Nobles Rives Crozes-Hermitage Blanc has a fresh light straw yellow color with emerald green hues in the glass. The scent is rich and complex with citrus fruits, tropical fruits (mango and pineapple), anise and some almond bitters. Well balanced. With crisp citrus acidity, as if you were biting into a fresh, crisp grape. Nice length. Time for a drink! With its fresh acidity, this white French wine works as a delicious apetizer. Feel free to drink it with food: boiled fish with a light creamy sauce and some lemon, or white meat, also with a squeeze of lemon (for example Wiener Schitzel or chicken). But also delicious with meal salads.

ABOUT CAVE DE TAIN
Without a doubt the top in the Hermitage and the Crozes Hermitage. In the Cave de Tain, approximately 370 farmers are united in a company with vision, passion for quality and feeling for the market. In the Northern Rhône they are leading with a share of more than 50% of production. The vineyards are located on the right bank, St. Joseph, Cornas and St. Peray, and on the left bank, Crozes Hermitage and Hermitage, of the Rhône and are located a maximum of 20 kilometers from the Cave. For many international winemakers, the wines produced here are the reference for their Syrah production. The company's crown jewels are its own vineyards on Mount Hermitage. The steep terraced vineyards with a granite soil bring out the best of the Syrah grape. International ratings between 90 and 100 points are “normal” for these wines. Cave de Tain owns no less than 25% of this unique piece of wine-growing area. Read more in the Tab: Winery

2020 Cave de Tain Hermitage Blanc Nobles Rives
RP 91
Drink Date: 2021 - 2035
Ripe pineapple and honey notes mark the nose of the 2020 Hermitage Blanc Nobles Rives. Hints of pear appear in support, along with a touch of citrus zest. While full-bodied, it's not overdone or hugely rich, with a smooth, silky feel on the palate and a long finish. Like most white Hermitage, it may be consumed within its first few years or held a decade or more.

On the left bank of the Rhône, between Lyon and Valence, the Hermitage hill dominates the Crozes-Hermitage appellation. From north to south, the vineyards of Saint-Joseph, Cornas and Saint-Péray spread out on terraces, on the right bank.
On their five cru vineyards, such as in Collines Rhodaniennes, the winegrowers of the Cave de Tain l'Hermitage offer an unparalleled variety of vineyard plantations, with access to all terroirs.
