Cellaring: 2011 - 2026
Tasted in 2009 : "92+".
By Robert M. Parker on April 29, 2009: "The superb 2006 Hermitage Le Miaux offers up notes of blackberries, charcoal, tar, and licorice in its dense, full-bodied, concentrated personality. With plenty of power and length, as well as sweet tannins. It should drink well for 15+ years."
