About the manufacturer
Jean Louis Chave
Jean Louis Chave is a legendary institution in the Rhône Valley and represents Hermitage in its purest, most classic form. For generations, the estate has cultivated prime vineyard sites in the Northern Rhône, remaining true to a philosophy that prioritizes tradition and craftsmanship over trends.
Jean Louis Chave's Wines are born from a profound understanding of the terroir and meticulous work in both the vineyard and the cellar. The Hermitage Rouges, in particular, demonstrate what is possible when slate soils, perfect ripeness, and patience are combined: powerful, complex, and elegant rather than heavy. The renowned Cuvée Cathelin is a legend in its own right – a Hermitage Blanc of such refinement and longevity that collectors worldwide seek it out.
What distinguishes this winery is its rejection of simplification. You won't find any modern gimmicks here, but rather honest, precise Wines that derive their greatness from authenticity. The Vintages age beautifully and develop a precious depth of complexity over the years.
At Wine In Time you will find carefully selected products from this winery – perfect if you want to understand what great Hermitage means.

Hermitage
The Jean Louis Chave Hermitage 2001 is a rare wine from one of the most prestigious estates in the Northern Rhône. For generations, the Chave family has cultivated their vineyards on the legendary Hermitage hill, where Syrah grapes ripen on granite and limestone soils to produce Wines of exceptional complexity. This cuvée comes from an outstanding Vintage and unites fruit, power, and finesse in perfect harmony.
The wine is produced traditionally with spontaneous fermentation and extended aging in used barrels. Jean Louis Chave consciously avoids modern interventions – the result is an authentic, terroir-driven wine that reflects the pure essence of the Rhône Valley. After more than two decades of bottle aging, this Hermitage is in impressive form.
The nose reveals aromas of dark berries, dried violets, black pepper, and a hint of truffle. On the palate, the wine is powerful and structured, with silky tannins, lively acidity, and notes of cassis, leather, and graphite. The finish is long, mineral, and remarkably elegant.
At Wine In Time, you can order this exceptional wine with express delivery to Vienna and throughout Austria. Also discover our selection of Red Wines, featuring other rare finds for connoisseurs.
