I have always been a huge fan of this wine, with incredible depth and richness of character. Dried meat, game, berry, spice, asphalt and tar. Full body with layers of ripe tannins and spice. It goes on for minutes on the finish. This is a fabulously spicy with black pepper, cinnamon, cloves, black truffles, sous bois and licorice. Decant two or three hours before serving. Purity and balance. This is the legendary 1961 again.

This fabulous, blockbuster has been totally unevolved since bottling, but at the Jaboulet tasting, it was beginning to reveal some of its formidable potential. A saturated opaque purple color is followed by aromas of cassis, minerals, and hot bricks/wood fire. Super-ripe and full-bodied, with a massive mid-section, teeth-staining extract, and mouth-searing tannin, it is a monster-sized La Chapelle. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2050

A torrid summer with little rain and good weather during the harvest led to a Chapelle of immense potential. Burly and not as seamless as the '90, with layers of this wine's typical plum, mineral and blackberry notes. While monolithic like a granite block, all the pieces should come together as it ages.--La Chapelle vertical. Best from 2005 through 2030. 9,000 cases made. PM

Domaine Paul Jaboulet Aîné
C’est en 1834 qu’Antoine Jaboulet a commencé à exploiter les terres en coteaux autour de l’Hermitage. Apportant un soin de tous les instants à ses vignes, il a travaillé à pied d’œuvre pour créer des vins exceptionnels. Depuis, des générations ont emprunté la voie qu’il a ouverte, et ce, jusqu’en 2006 lorsque la propriété est passée entre les mains de la famille Frey. Fortement ancrée dans le monde du vin en tant que propriétaire du Château La Lagune à Bordeaux, entre autres, les Frey perpétuent la passion de l’excellence célébrée par les Jaboulet. Sous l’égide de Caroline Frey, le chai et les vignobles ont fait l’objet d’une réfection, l’une de ses contributions les plus importantes étant la mise en application de pratiques durables. La répartition des différentes parcelles sur l’ensemble de la Vallée du Rhône, pour 121 hectares au total, permet de dédier les vignobles du Rhône septentrional à la syrah, tandis que les vignes de roussanne, marsanne et viognier servent à l’élaboration des blancs. Le porte-étendard de la maison Jaboulet, l’Hermitage La Chapelle, représente son apothéose, tandis que l’Hermitage La Petite Chapelle n’a pas grand-chose à lui envier.
