Wine Spectator 97 points (Sep 30 2012)
This red almost gushes with ripe plum, cassis, blackberry and black currant fruit, but stays harnessed, with spice-tinged grip, a tarry spine and a piercing cassis bush- and iron-inflected finish that will need cellaring to fully unfurl. The better of two bottles tasted. Best from 2016 through 2030. 625 cases made. –JM
Wine Advocate 99 points (Dec 2011)
The 2009 Ermitage Le Meal tastes like blood of Syrah. This sensual, full-bodied, voluptuously textured wine is like putting bloody steaks in a Cuisinart and extracting the juice and then fermenting it. A magnificent, layered, multidimensional effort exhibiting copious notes of camphor, charcoal, roasted herbs, blackberries, cassis and grilled meats, it will easily last 40-50+ years.
