Hermitage, La Chapelle--Vintage 1999
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: Paul Jaboulet Aîné
Tasting note: This estate's flagship wine, Hermitage La Chapelle, merits its world-renowned reputation. The promising 1999 Hermitage La Chapelle exhibits an impressive purple colour as well as a dense, sweet bouquet of minerals, cassis, liquorice, and spice box. Full-bodied and concentrated, it is not a blockbuster, but it is beautifully knit, with layered cassis flavors. Although soft at present, there are abundant quantities of underlying tannin. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2020. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
