With its deep color, Cuvée Émilie is a full-bodied, broad-shouldered yet supple Hermitage. Its precise structure and long, tactile finish never cease to impress. A racy cuvée to be cellared for five years, then enjoyed for at least a decade.

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2021) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
Philippe Desmeure and his daughter Émilie have developed this family estate to 30 hectares of vines. Vinification and ageing in wood produce cuvées with a habitually caressing mouthfeel. The estate shows great consistency in both colors, vintage after vintage. Good 2017.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated wine (guide 2024) 2*Stars (Vintage 2021) (Outstanding wine)
Domaine noté (guide 2023) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
Until 1973, Alphonse Desmeure brought his harvest to the cooperative. His son Philippe developed the estate from 1977 onwards, introducing bottled production and expanding the vineyard: 36 hectares today, spread over several communes. Émilie and Christophe, his children, have now joined the estate. An essential benchmark, with wines of rare consistency.
