Score 94/100 · Drink 2020-2028, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Sep 2020

Made with about nine grams per liter dosage and disgorged in March of 2017, the 2011 L'Ermitage Brut is drinking beautifully now but has plenty of room to grow. The nose opens shyly, slowly offering candle smoke, mushroom and toast with underlying red apples. The palate is surprisingly layered and very long, its savory notes opposed by saline notions and fresh acidic lift and enlivened by a creamy mousse. Winemaker Arnaud Weyrich says 2011 was the second time that grapes in Champagne were harvested before those in Anderson Valley, when the season there was a touch warmer than in Anderson Valley.

The 2011 Brut L'Ermitage is a gorgeous, totally captivating wine. It shows all the nuance of a wine of its age, and yet it retains a fine line of precision. Tangerine peel, mint, spice, white flowers, marzipan and spice all take shape in the glass. Complex, dynamic and beautifully understated, the 2011 is an absolute delight. The cold, rainy, late-ripening season yielded an exceptional L'Ermitage. Dosage is 11 grams per liter. Disgorged: March 2017.
