96 Points Jeb Dunnuck Just about all Marsanne and vinified and aged in 50% new barrels with malo blocked, the 2023 Hermitage Domaine Des Tourettes Blanc has a sensational bouquet of fresh quince, peach, white flowers, and crushed stone. Coming from the lower portion of the Bessards and the Le Grandes Vignes lieux-dits, it has medium to full-bodied richness, a concentrated yet ripe style, integrated acidity, and a great finish.
97 Points James Suckling This great white Hermitage has terrific concentration and mineral energy on the medium- to full-bodied palate. The aromas of Mirabelle plums and fresh pineapple plus a hint of vanilla occupy the foreground, but behind them is a great stony intensity that powers the extremely long finish. A delicate touch of bitterness completes the compelling picture. From two plots, one at the bottom of Les Bessards with quite deep soil, the other on the highest point of Hermitage with a shallow and stony granitic soil. Drink or hold.
96 Points The Wine Advocate In comparison to the 2022, the 2023 Hermitage Domaine des Tourettes Blanc is less introverted and more energetic at this stage. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of spring blossoms, ripe pear, white fruits and spices mingled with delicate notes of flowers with aeration, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, rather rich and muscular yet elegant and fresh, concluding with a long, sapid and saline finish enhanced by gastronomic bitterness. Pure and elegant, this is a sumptuous rendition of this Hermitage hill, perfectly crafted by Jacques Grange and his team.
