Hermitage Blanc Les Rocules Laurent Habrard 2017: Crisp and Compelling

Jake Morrison — Stunning white, worth every penny

9/10

Picked this up after the guy at my local wine shop raved about it. The peach and lemon thing going on is gorgeous — it's rich but not heavy at all. That dry, chalky finish is something else. Honestly one of the best whites I've had this year.

Luciano Bianchi — Really nice but pricey

8/10

Saw this on a restaurant menu and figured why not. It's a lovely wine — buttery but not overdone, with nice lemony freshness. At £55 though I'm not sure I'd buy it regularly for home. Would definitely order it again on a night out.

Farah Abboud — Absolutely blown away

10/10

I don't usually go for Marsanne/Roussanne blends but this has completely changed my mind. There's this mineral, almost salty quality underneath the fruit that keeps you coming back for more. The finish just goes on and on. Already ordered another bottle.
