About the E. Guigal Ex Voto Ermitage Rouge 2019

The 2019 E. Guigal "Ex Voto" Ermitage is a monumental and rare expression of Syrah, produced only in exceptional vintages from four legendary vineyard sites: Bessards, Greffieux, L’Hermite, and Murets. The 2019 vintage is characterized by extraordinary power and density, offering an opaque purple-black color and an explosive bouquet of crème de cassis, blackberry jam, and smoked meats, layered with sophisticated notes of graphite, licorice, and espresso. On the palate, the wine is massive and full-bodied, featuring a seamless, multidimensional texture and a formidable structural framework of ripe, velvety tannins. Matured for 40 months in 100% new French oak, it remains remarkably balanced with a vibrant mineral energy that leads to a persistent, savory finish. It is a legendary, long-lived wine intended for significant cellaring.

100 Points -

A barrel sample that just about made my eyes roll back in my head, the 2019 Ermitage Ex Voto has perfection written all over it. Full-bodied, deep, powerful, and structured, it has quintessential Hermitage notes of cassis, ground pepper, new leather, crushed stone, and violets. It brings lots of tannins and structure, but this has a beautiful buffer of ripe, concentrated fruit. If you’re lucky enough to get any of this, do your best to hide bottles for 7-8 years.
97 Points - 

This blockbuster is stunning in power and complexity. Thick, dark, concentrated, and chewy, with flavors of cherry preserves, salted black licorice and macerated plum, forming a brooding, well-meshed core. Spice, tobacco and mesquite ash notes weave through, adding depth and length. Delicious now, this will only improve for those who have the patience to cellar. Best from 2025 through 2045. 50 cases imported.

96 Points -

Enormously ripe and dense this is an imposing Hermitage with huge black fruit character, wrapped around the very compact tannic core. Some licorice, bitter chocolate and roasted coffee beans at the very long, structured finish. Needs some time, but already impresses from the first sniff! From four plots on the hill of Hermitage. Matured in 100% new oak for 42 months. Drinkable now, but best from 2025.

96 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2019 Ermitage Ex Voto is structured and perfumed quite differently from the La-La cuvées. It opens with aromas of oak, clove, spices and gentian. Full-bodied, dense and firmly built, it delivers a concentrated core of fruit and broad, authoritative tannins, concluding with a beautifully mordant, faintly mineral finish that shades into notes of tobacco and spice. Its intrinsic power and distinctly solar profile demand a proper stint in the cellar.
