Description:

Paul Jaboulet Hermitage La Chapelle 2003
Northern Rhone
"The finest example of this cuvee since 1990, the 2003 Hermitage La Chapelle (50,000 bottles rather than the normal 96,000+ were produced) possesses an inky/purple color as well as a tremendous bouquet of creme de cassis, crushed flowers, truffles, and licorice. Full-bodied and powerful (15% natural alcohol) with good freshness and definition, this big, rich, dense, reassuringly great La Chapelle should be cellared for 5-8 years, and drunk over the following 20-25." R. Parker, 95+ pts. 02/06
12 bottles (owc)
Estimate $600-900
