Cave de Tain Hermitage “Épsilon” 2015, from the esteemed Cave de Tain co-operative in the northern Rhône’s Hermitage appellation, is a powerful assemblage of Syrah (100%) with impeccable precision. Rich and deep ruby, its bouquet unfolds layers of preserved plum, cherry compote, clove, bourbon, vanilla, and pencil-lead minerality. The palate is decadent – concentrated, velvety tannins balanced by elegant acidity and subtle graphite nuance, delivering a long, poised finish. Awarded a Silver medal at the 2019 International Wine & Spirit Competition, and rated 94/100 by Wine Enthusiast, this vintage offers both immediate pleasure and rewarding evolution through 2035.
