Hermitage La Chapelle 2013 Jaboulet Aine

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (95)

A much more structured, even austere, Hermitage than the La Petite Chapelle release, the 2013 Hermitage la Chapelle came from minuscule yields of ten to 18 hectoliters per hectare and was aged 15-18 months in 20% new French oak. Not harvested until the 12th of October, it offers a sensational bouquet of blackberry and black raspberry fruits, powdered rock, gunpowder and pepper. Medium to full-bodied, with good (though maybe not great) levels of concentration, it has high, yet beautifully polished tannin, integrated acidity, and terrific cut and focus on the finish.

James Suckling (90)

JS A lighter La Chapelle with blueberry and crushed pepper character. Medium to full body, fine tannins and a fresh finish.
