Description
A white wine from Hermitage which authentically expresses its terroir
The estate
An emblematic name for the great wines of the northern Rhone Valley, the Paul Jaboulet-Aîné House was founded in 1834 in Tain L’Hermitage. The reputed oenologist and winegrower, Caroline Frey, runs this illustrious house, owned by by Frey family since 2006.
The vineyard
The Paul Jaboulet-Aîné House overlooks a 125-hectare vineyard, spread across exceptional appellations such as Saint-Joseph, Crozes-Hermitage, Hermitage, Cornas, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu and even Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise.
The wine
Wounded during the Albigensian Crusade in 1224, the knight, Gaspard de Sterimberg, asked Queen Blanche of Castile for permission to settle on a hill, on which he founded his hermitage. He built the Saint-Christophe Chapel there in 1235.
Roussanne and Marsanne vines are planted on this hill on clay-limestone and clayey-sand soils, giving this Chevalier de Stérimberg 2017 by Paul Jaboulet-Aîné the complexity and elegance of a Hermitage wine.
