TN:2017 Paul Jaboulet Aîné Hermitage La Chapelle

  • 2017 Paul Jaboulet Aîné Hermitage La Chapelle - France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Hermitage (9/26/2021)
    The other two that posted tasting notes on this are not far off…this is damn near perfect. I’d never had this wine, and with the 2019’s being released, I wanted to get an idea of the style. This is definitely in the “old world” style, with scents of black olive, smoke, charred meat, & violets. The palate is medium+ bodied, with med+ acidity, med+ fruit, and a long finish that called for another piece of steak. I’m excited to see what another 20+ years will do for this wine…only time will tell, yet I’m willing to gamble.
