Details
Hermitage, La Chapelle--Vintage 1961
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: Paul Jaboulet Aîné
Still opaque in 1983, sweet, laden with fruit. At nearly 30 years of age, still very deep; mulbery and prunes nose, its rich fleshiness reminding me of the '61 Pétrus or Trotanoy; very sweet on palate, full-bodied, soft, velvety tarry taste. Magnificent (GVWBII)
